| no partners | | This is basically a more steep, more rugged version of "nearby" Sheep Mountain. I went with Scott Surgent, and we made it about halfway up before coming to the gully split; I went ahead on the L fork and found it to dead-end, then found the R fork to be a royal pain to get up. So did Scott, and he decided to call it a day there while I went ahead alone to the top.
If you have the equipment and the knowledge to use it, the 30' rock waterfall might actually be an easier alternative to the nasty loose scree to the R of it. If you can surmount/safely descend this waterfall, all that remains in your way are one or two easy class 3 waterfalls just above.
Beautiful part of the state, especially with all the greenery from our wet winter. Nice views of the Kofas, Castle Dome, and the band of dunes paralleling the approach road from the summit! |
