byates	What a view!
	Just wandered up the ridge from the Northwest fun route finding, great solitude.

Kadee	Fire Date Climbed: Sep 6, 2008
	The majority of the hike was in fire burned terrain. It is a weird feeling to be surrounded by scorched trees and brush all around you. Summit was great. Camped at the Green River CG, very nice campground. There was only one other person at the campground.

Sagebrush	Route Climbed: Horse Trail Canyon Date Climbed: June 2000
	I climbed Horse Trail Draw up to the saddle on the north half of Split Mountain. It was a bit of a scramble in some spots...especially near the park boundary. The saddle itself was spectacular. It is undoubtedly a former side canyon carved long ago by a stream which eventually diverted around the mountain, since I found ancient stream deposits in the base of the saddle. It would be interesting to know the age of the deposit. To get to the Horse Trail Draw, go on the road to Rainbow Park and look for the big notch (which is the saddle) in the mountain. Park next to the road and travel cross country until you reach the draw that leads up to the saddle. For directions to the Rainbow Park road, ask at a park visitor center. Here is the topozone web address for a map of the area: http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?z=12&n=4483216&e=650077&s=50&size=l&datum=nad83&layer=DRG25

Scott	Route Climbed: Desert Voices Route, several explorations all over the mountain. Date Climbed: Summit: 1992 and October 2003
	Explored around several times, including in 1991, 1992, and more recently 2002 and 2003. I have been all over this mountain, but most of the time, the intent was just not to climb the mountain, though I have summitted twice, once in 1992 and once in 2003. On April 3, 2005, I spent part of the day on the lower slopes photographing the route and mountain with a digital camera.
