I plan on hiking Browns Canyon, 11.5 miles south-to-north, through the Harquhala Mountains, from Eagle Pass Rd to Hwy 60, on Thursday, 2/28, starting at 0800, across from the mine dump ( 33.799963 , -113.189076 ), ending at the power sub-station ( 33.906598 , -113.285914 ) west of Aguila. AEG will be negligible (maybe 1000). Most of it will be on jeep trail, but there will be 3 miles cross country, half of that in a wash. So, not bad. There will be a dam, a spring and several prospects. Expect to finish about 1400. Looking for a few folks to make it a shuttle hike.

Other than Harquhala Peak, and Eagle Eye Peak/Mountain, the Harquhalas have no descriptions or routes, so this will be a first. (At least that gets posted here ... ;) )

It depends on how my ankle feels. I can let you know for sure on the 26th.

Also, I promise I won't look for snakes.

@gummo
They might be out by then...I know at least one Kingsnake will be.... Lots and Lots of places for those guys to den up out there....

I'm not going to be able to join you for this one Preston, sorry. Have a good time though and I look forward to hearing lots of details and your pics.

triplog, photos, description and route on the way. The whole area bears further exploration. Well worth the time!
