Great hike, decent challenge with a nice rewarding view from the top of the tower. Pretty well blazed with orange when we visited, trail was clear the whole way. There were picnic tables at the top, and let me gush about a weird thing -- they were almost perfectly level. Seriously, I noticed that they were really nice and wound up measuring with my phone, only 1.8° off from perfect -- neat!
Compared to some of the other fire tower trails I've hiked, even with my disability taken into consideration, for me I would rate this trail as moderately strenuous. Different websites will rate it differently. It was pretty much an Old logging Road the whole way up. There were only a couple of areas that I had to climb talus rocks or talus Ledges depending on your view. At no time did I have to get on my hands and knees to do rock scrambles. And speaking of views, you have to climb the fire tower to get the views. And the view to the north is blocked by regrowth of conifers. All in all I liked the hike itself. It was easy to find and it took me about three hours which is longer than it would take most people. But then again, most people don't hike with disabilities. It's definitely not handicapped accessible.
