Parked where Palm Avenue ended and Forest Road 2N49 began. The forest road served as my wide trail all the way to the summit. The road splits at a saddle between Flat and Monument Peak. I took the road to the left there and hit the summit shortly thereafter. Was surprised to see a pickup truck sitting on top with some guy strung out in the back recovering from a long night of partying. I wanted to do other nearby summits, but as usual I had other places to go today.
