Follow the instructions for Route 1 until the junction with 3N14 at 9.4 miles. Instead of going left, keep right. Note your odometer again and go as follows:
At 1.5 miles, cattle guard. Continue.
At 2.0 miles, a fork on the left just before a deep dip in the main road. Turn left.
At 2.9 miles, fork. This is the turnoff for Round Mountain. Keep straight.
At 3.4 miles, forks to right then left. Keep straight.
At 3.8 miles, fork to the left just before a ranch with a lot of junk Volkswagen cars. Turn left.
At 4.1 miles, fork. Passenger vehicles may wish to park here and continue on foot. Turn right and proceed over a steep hill.
At 4.6 miles, a parking area just before the road turns right and goes downhill. Park here (UTM 883013).

From the parking area (5050'), head south up the slope to where you meet a road.
Turn left (east) on this road and hike about 1/2 mile to where the road begins to level off.
Leave the road on the right and hike south up the slope gaining the summit ridge.
Continue south along this ridge to the summit which is marked by a telephone pole with a radio repeater.
