We started early monday morning at the parking lot a couple miles up a dirt road from the Maple Springs Trailhead. It was a one lane road, so fortunately for us we didn't see anyone coming down. After that it was a gradual uphill climb along the dirt road. Since it was about 7:30am we thankfully had full shade for most of the hike up. At the top, it splits 4 ways with the left being Holy Jim Trail. We hiked around the others but found they were just access roads for the many electrical substations at the peak. It ended up being the right most path that wound around for a half mile or so past station 14. A very easy hike, though I would recommend bringing a hat and plenty of sunscreen if you intend to get a later start. After about 10, there's no cover from the sun.
