Reports describe the cited dates. An expected reopening date does not establish reopened access.

Climb the main trail to Paradise Ridge, then continue approximately 2.3 km farther along the higher route toward Mount Monroe, also spelled Munroe in some listings. The tourism source gives about 1,519 m total ascent to this summit, compared with about 1,258 m to the ridge. Return over Paradise Ridge and down the same steep forest approach; allow additional time for the 2026 blowdown report and the longer upper section.

1. Getting there and parking

From Highway 16 east of McBride, turn onto Mountainview Road and continue approximately 12.6 km to the roadside pullout and trail access. Confirm the signed start locally and park fully clear of the road; this approach is different from driving up McBride Peak Forest Service Road.

Driving access has not been established for this selected route option; check its original sources.
