Canebrake to Cottonwood 11/26/2018
This is a one way shuttle hike. Our group is starting at the desert floor.
We hope to meet with the other group somewhere to switch our car keys.
At Inner Pasture.
Taking a break. Where is Wayne? Is he at front or somewhere back? We don’t know.
Sandy road.
It is a long road.
Jim stopped here and he will wait for John’s group. But why is he stripping down?
Rare picture of big ears.
Lagunas radar dome.
No water here.
Our groups met exactly at noon so we had a lunch together while waiting also for Hersch and Wayne to regroup.
All together, minus Jim.
They are going down.
We are going up.
Sawtooth and the Red Top.
Sitting on a kitchen work table.
Water spring under the boulders.
Almost up.
It is mostly flat here but still some way to go.
Made it to the Cottonwood campground. Sun is down, it is getting cold!
