From Gunsight Pass, there is a faint path that goes almost level for about 1/4 mile on the east side of 13103, then it is a moderate scramble up to the top of the plateau.
Thanks, ZeeJay. We looked for it. I know we were too far down when we cut over. Great country! Enjoyed it immensely even with the longer route. And with the thunderstorms it was better to be lower later in the day anyway.
It was nice hiking with you Bark Eater! A good long day with wholesome exhaustion. Thanks for writing a nice detailed report. Will see you again on the trail hopefully soon.
way to go guys! couple of us are headed up that way in a few weeks.. will remember the bit about "summit early".. LOL love your comment about bugs.. so true!
Thanks, DK. Please let us know how you make out. It is an amazing area...vast, beautiful, and remote. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to go back and further explore in the not too distant future.
