Explored some of the peaks south of Vulture. While up on one of the peaks, a group of turkey vultures came out from behind the mountain and began flying around. Awesome to see. On the way down to the saddle, we checked out a 3-4ft arch that required a fancy move up a 6ft wall to enter. It was essentially the entrance to an alcove with one heck of a view.

We hit the saddle and scrambled up the chute in record time (my record time). Relaxed and started heading down after maybe an hour. Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce has placed a fresh notebook in the ammo box, and all of the water damaged entries were removed. If only they had replaced the box, too.
