A little closer
The trail goes up and over the ridge to the left. The off-trail segment goes right, cuts up and to the right and achieves the high ridge at the low point seen here
Now on the high ridge, the summit is up there somwhere
The highest point up ahead
At the top. The rock to the left is the very top
View north of Jeffords Peak, highest point of the Tortolita Mountains
Southeast view into the morning glare
The Santa Catalinas, with snow still on its highest points
The Alamo Spring Trail runs below the ridge to the right
Cool geology
