A near drive-up summit in the Coast Range. From Highway 36 around Milepost 20, take  BLM 17-8-31 Road, (Near 44.11999,-123.64626 and 17445 Oregon 36, Deadwood, Oregon).

Travel 4.2 miles on this Priusable gravel road and park when 0.2 miles from summit and walk up the road shown in the first photo. At the summit are remains of a fire lookout (see photos):

Lots of trees for antennas with little brush in your way along the road. No 2m FM activity as you might expect in this remote location. Nearby Walker Point W7O/CC-027 might also be activated if you are headed that way.
