Summary
While on my exploratory mission into the Inland Empire, I made sure to stop by this one. To start the hike, I parked in a pullout off Villegas Rd and utilized a series of use trails to reach the summit. On the way up, I found a good summit use trail coming from the east. This trail connects with Sage Rd at a wide turnout, thus making it a better starting point than the one I chose. That's the way it goes sometimes while on exploratory missions with no previous visitor data to work with.

Regardless of where the hike begins, the elevation gain will be the same. It's just more likely it will be a clearer pathway to the summit if beginning from the recommended parking area on Sage Rd. The summit has a wired up cross on it with some decent views to enjoy. The descent is quick and steep, making for a nice short outing. In my case, this was simply hike #2 of 3 on the day. Instead of the name "Roundtop", I've seen it listed as "Round Top", which is probably the proper way to identify it, but that's just my best guess.
