Approaches

From North. The turnoff from Ut150 is signed as Soapstone Basin. After passing a number of camping facilities the road traverses steeply through dense forest to the east. As it emerges into a a clearing, the summit section can be made out above as an expansive meadow. The meadow is followed by a  grassy ridge, rounded as a cresting clay roof shingle.

Down South. It's a quick descent through trees with a few switch backs near the end, before joining the Wolf Creek Pass road.
