Seymour Mountain (the other one)

Has anyone here ever made it up the non-High Peaks Seymour Mountain that is located just outside of Lake Placid to the west? I happened to notice it while driving down Averyville Road earlier this year and was intrigued. It looks like it has some exposed rock with the potential for some nice views.

OpenStreet Map shows a number of trails in the vicinity of the peak, with one up to the summit. Presumably these are actually herd paths/unofficial trails as the "official" DEC maps for the SLWF make no mention of any trails in the area. The network of paths actually appears to be fairly extensive- perhaps these are bandit mountain bike trails? Some of the paths shown cross private property- any knowledge of whether these are open to the public? Looks like longer approaches entirely across state land are also possible via the network of paths from near the Chubb River bridge on Averyville Road, or from the railroad tracks not far from the train station in Lake Placid itself.
