Trail run from our campsite on BLM land. Ascended via an old, closed off jeep trail for the first mile (very steep, I can see why they closed it!), then met up with some established dirt roads for most of the rest of the climb. Had to leave the roads a few times to go around some remaining snow drifts and a couple downed trees, but the road was mostly clear. Bushwhacked through a very spooky burn area to the true summit, marked by a lovely pink boulder. Returned via roads.
