Access
From its [signed] junction with Fall Creek Road/FSR-077, drive south on Skyline Road/FSR-075 for 8.0 miles to an unsigned jeep road on the left/east side of the road. Park at the base of this jeep road (7,440 feet).

The Climb
Hike northwest up the jeep road to near the summit then follow a weak 2-track road to the top. There was no cairn on the summit so I built one.
