After threading your way through a maze of boulders and pine trees (but on a well-marked trail), you reach the summit of Mount Hillyer. Although this is a fun, moderate climb, with easy access, this relatively flat summit feels remote and although you might encounter mountain bikers, you will proably only see a few other hikers if any.
