Peak 5067 was on my list just for the views of the south side of White Mountain. There is a legendary ruin up there but at this point it seems to be just a legend. The route up 5067 was pretty easy with a little brush to push through at the start and then again near the top. The views are nice and it was interesting to see how Rogers Canyon, Fish Creek and Goat Canyon connect. For a moment I consider hiking up Peak 4765 but the terrain looked a bit rough so maybe next time. On the hike out I talked to a hunter who asked me if there was a trail up there. :lol:

I told him no but the terrain isn't bad. On the way out I jumped on the ridge to the west of the trail to look for ruins. I found one small ruin with a few sherds but nothing good. I started hiking about 8:30 am and was surprised that it wasn't very cold out there. Just another nice hike on an open trail.
