Haven't tried to climb it but would like to one day. You should be able to get pretty close to the bottom by road and there is probably a trial to the top because there was one on center. On Center people went up to get wood and grow trees near the top so there is a good chance others are doing similar things there. If you want to go sometime, let me know because I can advise you and maybe even go with you.

I took the orginal down and put up this one which is a little clearer.

Thanks for posting. Sure doesn't look anything like it did November of 67-April 68. I was with the 105 Howitzer unit there, B Battery, 3rd Battalion, 82nd Artillery.
