Blackjack Mountain to the right, seen from about three miles away


Blackjack Mountain pokes up behind the foreground hill, evil catclaw to the lower left


About halfway along the ridge


The peak ahead, lovely flowing grass, pinon and juniper, a little cactus


The steep uphill toward the top


Now on the top ridge, the summit is in view


Summit cairn, view east toward Haystack Butte


Southwest view, the Apache Peaks


Northwest, the Sierra Ancha


North view. Not sure what peak that is


Four Peaks way out there. The bigger peak closer in is Jump Benchmark


Dawn view of Haystack Butte and Black Mountain
