The road to the summit, located in the Rabbit Ears Range in the Rocky Mountains, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). 4x4 vehicle required. Expect a trail pretty steep. Thunderstorm activity can quickly change unpaved roads to four-wheel-drive condition or make them impassable. There is a historic fire lookout on the summit. It was built in 1916 and used until 1948. It fell into disrepair, but has recently been restored to usable condition. It was one of the highest fire lookouts in the nation.
