There are a few access points, but to start at the bottom of the hill hike the Mount Woodson Trail to the Practice Boulders. About 100ft before reaching them, find an obvious trail heading north off the road. Head downhill to a T in the trail, then head left. From here, go right, passing a pond on your left, to access most areas.
