Ascent Trip ReportMy father and I parked at the Bell Mountain trail head and followed the trail to the summit. It was very long and extremely inefficient the first two miles. On the way back I bushwhacked a half mile to save over a mile on the trail. The trailhead has maps and I encourage a direct bushwhack at times when the trail ventures off in the wrong direction. It's a 10 mile round trip hike if you stay on the trail. We did find the benchmark at the summit. There is also a small campsite at the summit. |
