Butcher Jones Peak
October 8, 2018


View of the beach at Butcher Jones Rec Area, with Peregrine Point to the right


The mountain comes into view a couple miles into the hike


The rock outcrop on top the peak


Approaching the top from the east


Almost to the base of the rock


On top! View east toward Four Peaks and the clouds


Looking west at Stewart Mountain, Stewart Dam and the main bulk of Saguaro Lake


The bend in the river. I was part of a technical rescue back about 2001 on the cliffs slightly to the right of the small cove


Descending the peak now, bypassing a large rock stick-out


The peak with clouds, blue skies and bright sun
