Hathaway road switchbacks have been extended to about 3,000 ft. From the end of construction it was a short bushwhack to an abandoned logging road shown as a dashed line on the topo. This southward traversing road is being invaded by alders but is still easy to travel. Another short bushwhack straight uphill to the beginning of the summit spur road. Total bushwhack only a half mile. WA P3k 20/52
Via The "Dewey Approach" Date Climbed: Feb 7, 2010
I summited Lyman Hill via the western approach, which I have personally nicknamed the "Dewey Approach"... after local peakbagger Andy Dewey who provided a very useful account for the western approach only one year prior. The damp mossy and loose ground of the thick forests slowed down my ascent due to safety concerns (as I did not want to slip and slide), but the snow at the top of the mountain was much enjoyed.
