Straight up ridge just west of camp, definitely recommended route. Missed the can and walked a half-mile down fireroad looking for the highpoint. Found the register on my way back. Did Gobbler's and Circle as well.
After a long day working outdoors in the Inland Valley I was determined to hike. My friend Janel and headed out and hiked the old trail from the NE. A very beautiful ridge to watch the sunset over the Mojave.
Drove to the top after Baden Powell earlier in the day. Maybe, just maybe, a 200' horizontal distance hike from the road. Pretty pathetic from that approach.
2nd warm-up, after Circle Mtn, prior to doing the Baden Powell to Ross Mtn to Baden Powell hike. Took less than an hour round trip from the northern approach -- summit cairn is not so obvious. And who was the idiot who wrote this mountain page -- the views aren't that good.
