A little concerned before going that I might have trouble starting on the trail because of the hike description on HAZ describing the guy's private property and bushwhacking around it, but no worries. There is a fairly well-worn trail now that starts just outside the private property gate. It splits into a couple of trails, but they both end up where you want to go. Beyond that you follow a ridge with a pretty defined trail and a few ducks/mini cairns along the way. Along the trail there are a few places where the brush and some of the cactus squeezes the trail a little bit, but it is still quite passable, no bushwhacking but watch the ground in those area for fallen cactus pieces 
Once you get on the top of Ballard the trail becomes a maze of trails and may appear a bit confusing; I just picked one heading up and it made it there. My guess is they all end up there. Forgot to look for the register hidden in the bushes while I was there...if you go up, sign in for me  |
