There is a mild climb up Highland Oaks Drive to warm-up the legs. The first regroup is at the Arno Drive cul-de-sac near the entry gate to Chantry Flat Road. From there it's a short but challenging 3-mile climb (6%-7% average incline) to the top; then it's time to rest and take in the wooded scenery, maybe even grab a bite at the rustic Adams Pack Station.
