Highlights
Hull Mountain rises above Lake Pillsbury in the southwest part of the Mendocino National Forest in Northern California. This is a beautiful area for camping, swimming, fishing, and 4WD adventures. The mountain stands at 6,873', and there is a rough gravel road all the way to the summit, where only a concrete foundation remains of the fire lookout tower that once stood here. The views from the top are world-class; on a clear day, you can see Lassen Peak to the north, the Sierras to the east, and the nearby peaks of the Mendocino National Forest all around you (including Snow, Sanhedrin, and Goat, to name a few).
