The road to the summit, located within the White River National Forest, is gravel and rocky. It’s called Larkspur Mountain Road (FSR #103), also called Christmas Tree Road and Lenado/Johnson Creek Road. 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. The route offers great views of the Elk Range all along the way.
