| partners | | Day 3 of our Turtle Mountain Wilderness trip with Steph and Blake. We drove the bumpy road to the trailhead from camp, 4x4 high clearance required.
The hike was fairly easy even though the day was unseasonably warm. We found two seeps near the coordinates for Coffin Springs. There was some plumbing and a metal tank down lower making it obvious the springs used to be more productive.
Blake found us a good lunch spot with a great view and evidence of mountain sheep using it for shelter.
The geology on display here is amazing. |
