 This summit is not very noteworthy. It's best feaure is being only a few miles from Cummins Peak, allowing an easy two summit  activation. You are on a road right of way that is surrounded by forest. No views, but lots of trees to support antennas.

 

The road that got you to Cummins Mountain will take you on to Klickitat Mountain.  Stay on this road (Klickitat Ridge Road) and drive 4.1 miles to the  Klickitat “trailhead”. 

 

Notable directions: At “T” with Rd 5500, go right. At 3.7 miles from leaving Cummins parking spot at intersection with NF-58 (5800), take the right road; The “trailhead” for Klickitat is a left upward turn that used to be a road, but has had earthen mounds plowed up to block vehicular travel. It is an easy, grassy walk that goes about 0.5 miles to the summit (220’ elevation rise).
