We parked at the parking area at Lake Skanatati and took the Arden-Surebridge Trail up the mountain and then took the Red Cross Trail down, crossing the road, and then went to the rock jutting into Lake Askoti at it's north end. We continued on the Red Cross Trail to the view at Hasenclever Mountain above Lake Askoti.

We then turned around back along the Arden-Surebridge Trail to the Red Cross Trail. We then took the old Arden-Surebridge Trail prior to its rerouting to the view above Lake Skanatati and Lake Askoti. We then took the path back to the Arden-Surebridge Trail and then back to the trailhead.
