Assembling a small cairn to better mark the trail-head for the Reflector Oven. This photo looks towards the summit. On approach, you'll come to a distinct, straight stretch of path. The start of the trail for the Reflector Oven will be roughly half-way up the main trail on the left and marked by a unique tree with three trunks.

If heading down the main trail from the summit towards the lower parking lot, you'll come to the tree with three trunks first on your right about halfway down this straight portion of the main trail. The trail-head for the Reflector Oven should be no more than a few minute hike from the summit.

Walking from the summit on the blue blaze trail, look for these cairns on your right and then head down the hill on something of a path and you'll just have to find the best way to the bottom of the big rock wall on the right. There is some scrambling.
Reflector Oven
Triple trunk tree as listed in approach beta.
We built this small cairn to mark the otherwise barely detectable trail-head to the Reflector Oven. It sits close to the more permanent three-trunk tree.
