| no partners | | With the even higher than normal temperatures forecasted for today, I wanted to do a hike that was closer to home and get a jump on the earlier part of the day. I also wanted something that didn't have too much elevation gain. I decided on the southern end of the Bulldog Canyon Road, although that ended up having more elevation gain than I had intended. It still wasn't too bad.
I hiked to where I left off several years ago when I hiked the north half (and then some) of the road. On my way back, I noticed that the road was intersected by the track for Idaho Road to The Mask. I hiked to the north end of the wash, but decided not to hike up to The Mask. There was absolutely no sign of any trail, and the steep and sketchy looking terrain didn't look very inviting as the heat started to bear down. On my way back, I noticed a cairn on the side of the wash that marked a single track. I started to follow that for a bit and then saw a brown vinyl marker. I figured this would likely take me back to the road, which it did. It also went back into the wash a few times before it went up over a saddle to the road.
I had intended to try to hike the route back to the Idaho TH and hike the Wolverine Pass Trail over back towards where I parked. However, once back on the road, I was beyond where that intersection was, and was up a bit higher. I decided to take the road back the TH and call it a day. Looks like quite few other trails and ATV roads to explore out here. |
