Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.

Ski trail junction

Glebe Mountain is home to Magic Mountain Ski Area as well as the old Timber Ridge ski area. A very steep hike, Magic usually has a brush-hogged passes up the slopes that make hiking a bit easier than it would be in chest high grass. Timber Ridge is a fairly easy hike from the summit of Glebe Mountain, as the old access trail is still used by mountain bikers and four wheelers rather frequently.
