"This was a solo birthday hike. January 26 always has dismal weather, but it barely felt like winter at all down in the valley where I parked my car—at the foot of the mountain. Winter’s grip got icier and colder as I climbed. By the time I got to the top, I wished I’d brought my crampons. With 1,500 feet elevation gain, it was a perfect 1980s January up on the summit, windy, frigid, and snowing. I loved it! The old fire tower seems to have been torn down and replaced by modern radio towers. A fun climb, but no views up top. The several places that may have offered vistas were socked in with clouds. Follow Mill Street in Millwood to the place where it becomes a dirt trail. Stay on the most-traveled route at all junctures. At about 2.1 miles, take the gated road to the left up to the summit and towers. The whole trek is about 6.4 miles round trip. This is private land but open to hiking and hunting." — briansnyder • Jan 26, 2023
