Coit Road crosses Willow Ridge Road on top of the next ridge at about 2250 feet.

The fairly easy climb from Coit Lake up to Willow Ridge Road here is only a third of a mile long and only gains about 200 feet.

I haven't seen this end of Willow Ridge Road before. I won't be seeing any more of it today either because I'm heading down the next hill toward Kelly Lake.
