Looking east near the start of the trail

This image is permanently burned in my memory from so many mornings waking up to it, so many evenings of the alpenglow setting fire to the already ruddy ridge, not to mention 4-wheeling up Fredonia (before some :-X dynamited the track) and cruising up Red Mountain to utter solitude (forgetting something which was found the following season by my friend), looking down on them from Fletcher and Quandary, just a magnificent photo from the magnificent McCullough Gulch. Speaking of :-X TRESPASSERS WILL BE SHOT. Hell of a welcome as one finally gains one's second wind. Maybe the marmots broke in to his larder, as they did to my backpack. OK well thanks for putting this up, I was really hoping someone would.
