DRIVING ROUTE 1
- Take I-10 east and I-15 north to Sierra Avenue. Exit I-15 and turn
left at the bottom of the off-ramp onto Sierra Avenue.
- Go 1.6 miles to a dirt road (1N34) on the left. Turn
left. Note your odometer and go as follows:
- At 1.0 mile, junction at a power line. Go straight.
- At 5.6 miles, fork with 1N36 (closed) on the left. Keep
straight.
- At 7.7 miles, fork. Keep straight. (This is the turnoff for
San Sevaine Lookout.)
- At 9.8 miles, barbed wire barricade on left blocking
overgrown road. Park here.
Note: High clearance 4WD vehicles may be required past 8.2 miles.
The road is too rough and steep for 2WD vehicles past this point.
There is also a problem with brush damaging vehicles' finish. It may be
easier to leave vehicles at the San Sevaine Lookout
trailhead (5550') and hike the road toward the Buck Point. This will
add 4
miles round trip and 500' of gain.
HIKING ROUTE 1
- From the parking area (6050'), go around the barbed wire barricade on
the left and hike up an overgrown road to a saddle.
- Turn right at the
saddle, leave the road, and hike along a use trail through high brush to
the flat summit area.
- The register is in a small rock cairn off to the
left (south).
NOTE
As of 11/16, route is severely overgrown and virtually impassable.
