Summit:

This summit was my last one on a recent trip to Willamette National Forest.

It came about after all the other summits I had selected north of the Santiam Hwy were closed due to recent fire damage.

Having approached this area from both the West and the East, I strongly suggest that you get here from the East, by driving through Carson and driving up the 42 road to where it meets with the 53 road. The route from the West is technically shorter if you're coming from the Portland area, but unless you live in Battle Ground, it's not worth it. The roads from that direction are just too bumpy and grown over. It takes longer and it beats up your vehicle.

This is a stretch for a PNWSOTA summit report but, if you find yourself in Seoul with a few hours to kill, this could help you navigate.  My son and I were able to activate this summit after doing the normal tourist activities.
