Haystack rock vortex?

East of Skamania mines/1250 road theres a trail that goes up “haystack rock vortex” on google maps. Is this a trail people use?

That's the location of the Chimney Rocks and there are some trails in that area. I don't know anything in that area by any other name but perhaps someone applied their own personal touch.

Have fun - there will be two to three feet of snow - maybe more.

Oh, I somehow missed this.
If anybody cares...it's a neat place to visit, but access is via a gated/signed (stay out) road. I snuck in one day when the gate was open for logging, and the sign was missing.
Plausible deniability and all that ;)
But I was at that gate in the last month, and it's very clear visitors are not welcome.
