Mount Wilson
January 22, 2012


Early morning sun


Approaching the base


Hill 4348 is above us. We walked up this slope then across toward the main range crest, seen way above


Slightly closer; we went up the slopes at left


Looking back at Hill 4348


The summit is seen at left. At right is the false summit we'd been seeing all day from below


We got through the first false summit rocks and now there's the true top up ahead


From the top, a view west toward Hoover Dam, Lake Mead and the new bridge spanning the chasm


A look back at the range crest we just came up, including the rocky false summit


South view


North view, with Arch Mountain behind me


Northwest view, with Scott Peavy and Fortification Hill behind him


The hike out
