Ascent Trip Report

The high point is quite close to the aptly named Turkey Hill Rd. I parked near a shack surrounded by numerous vehicles in various states of disrepair. Nobody home when I knocked. A short scamper up the small hill.

It's probably slightly higher than the elevation listed here based on an elevation noted at 1342 on my Garmin map, GPS readings in the 1340s, and the fact that it's 40+ feet up from my parking spot at close to 1300.
