Access
From Rogerson, ID, drive 29.9 miles west then southwest on the Rogerson-Jarbidge Highway to a crest in the road. Park in a pullout area here (5,985 feet). GPS coordinates: 42⁰05’11”N, 115⁰06’08”W.

The Climb
From the crest in the highway, follow a fence row south-southeast for about ¼ mile. Cross to the right/west side of the fence and head due south to the high point of Mud Flat Hill. The high point is well right/west of the fence row. The actual high point is difficult to ascertain since it is only about 30 vertical feet above the road crest. The terrain on this short hike is gapped sagebrush and is relatively easy to navigate.
