Summit: W7O/WV-098
Submitted by K7ATN on
There's nothing particularly interesting about Pete's Mountain - it's essentially a suburban pavement activation for one point. There's no public space so one ends up standing on the public right of way a few feet from the road, pretty…

TL; DR - There are at least six Saddle Mountains in W7O and W7W, this is the one close to peak 3534. The drive to the parking area is easily…

TL;DR - Peak 3534 is a twenty to thirty minute drive from South Saddle Mountain (W7O/NC-002) over logging roads. You pass South Saddle to get to 3534 so a two summit, four point day is easy. 4WD, good directions, and GPS are really…

Olson is a near drive to summit. Find a good spot to park on the side of the road and find a good opening in the timber and brush to get to the top/AZ. The road may even be in the AZ but I went a bit higher. Ample area and trees to set up and logs…

Miller Peak is a large commercial communications site. Given that, the road accessible to the public is narrow, brushy and with few places to pass on coming vehicles. The road can become a bit crowded in later summer if a huckleberry…

Elk Mountain is a short scramble off a good US Forest Service road. The scramble is mostly on a ridge through an old clearcut that has in places heavy ceanothus brush. Wood ticks can be abundant in the spring. There are scattered…
