Take highway 101 north out of Florence and turn on to Tenmile Creek Road. Stay on this nice road for a couple miles then turn left onto NF -5694. This is a good, mostly paved road. After a few miles you will see a hiking sign on the left side of road. Don't turn, stay straight ahead. From here go about a quarter mile and you will see a yellow gate on the left before you make a big left turn. I parked here and hiked about 4/10 mile easily to the summit. If you go passed the trail head to the big fork in the road with FS Road 5000, turn around. There is a weather station at the top with ample room to set up most SOTA style antennas. The Forest Service coords shows the summit on the other side of the weather station, but it is actually a big drop-off on the other side. There is no higher prominence. The coords of where I placed my antenna are: 44N14.144 123W59.552 The bugs were starting to get bad so be ready for them. I think most vehicles should be able to make the trek in dry weather. Lots of fun on the Oregon coast!
