| partners | | linda suggested a trip to the sierra anchas for our hike today
haven't done much in this area, so was excited to hit the two high points and see some of the mining stuff
we got going around 0810 from pocket spring after looking at the waterfall
hiked up forest road 489 to the turnoff
steep and rocky, can't imagine driving it
played on the digger then walked along the old road along the south face of asbestos point to check out a few of the mines
went inside two of them a few feet
we didn't inhale
took another old road up toward asbestos point
this road gradually deteriorated into a bushwhack with deadfall
found the use trail up to the peak
nice views to the south
descended off trail back to the better part of the road, then started up to zimmerman
road walk partway, then off trail over a hill and up to the point
a bit brushy and rocky on the steeper part
spent some time up top having a snack, taking photos and admiring the views to the east
back to the road, then down the road, inspecting the bizarre tepee constructed near pocket spring
it's been there since at least march according to @dixieflyer and @wildforaz
on the drive out, linda kindly showed me a couple of the camping areas overlooking roosevelt lake
would like to spend more time in the anchas
thanks for driving, linda
i loved the hike - great choice! |
