I'm not 100% sure how to use this site yet but here is my attempt at posting pictures and a trip-log.
This was my second venture into the southern Sierra Ancha mountains, and involved a partial on trail loop
and partial "shortcut" which is always a mistake.
Coon creek is beautiful and really has some great views and shows the ruggedness of these mountains,
and takes you through multiple different types of terrain as you dip down toward the creek bed and
climb to the rim.
The Nordhoff-hope ruins are impressive in how many rooms you can find, but leave you with plenty of
cactus needles and catclaw scratches as souvenirs. They are very exposed and do not have as many
standing walls as I had hoped, but were still amazing.
