The road to the summit, located within the Lewis and Clark National Forest, is gravel and rocky. It’s called Forest Service Road 834. It’s impassable in winters. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. At the summit there’s a lookout tower built in 1960, with spectacular views.
