Middle Camp Mountain
April 3, 2022


Middle Camp Mountain the day before, at sunset


Morning sun brightens the canyon walls


High on the ridge, not the summit yet


Nearing the top but still not quite there


On top of the east summit with the benchmark, looking at the west summit


The east summit as viewed from the west summit, into the morning glare


South view from the top, Sawtooth Mountain across Interstate-10


North view


Hiking back to the east summit, this was really the only place where the cholla were thick


The slope down off the summit ridge. I ascended the drainage barely visible at the right, but I descended into the one at the left


Summit shots of the east and west summits, a miner's shack, the benchmark
