The band across the face of this peak catches
your eye about 2/3 of the way up. |
 |
Desert Globemallow - Sphaeralcea ambiqua |
 |
As you near of the switchbacks this balanced
formation is one of the dominate formations |
 |
Looking back to the South from the top of the
switchbacks at the spires and columns left from ancient volcanic dikes. |
 |
Weaver's Needle - from Fremont Saddle |
 |
A less obstructed view of the needle. |
 |
Looking back down Peralta Canyon from Fremont
Saddle; in the foreground - Perry's Agave - Agave parryi |
 |
Another one that should have been easy to find
in the books, I'm still looking. |
 |
On the way up, this shady spot had been filled
with resting hikers - on the way down it was vacant - not much shade is
offered along this trail or at the saddle. |
