Split Mtn. Mud Hills 11/23/2020
Starting in the big wash.
Mud layers.
Elephant Knees. We may climb it on a way back and get down via front side.
This is a short climb but steep.
Almost up.
Got up to the flat.
And back down again.
2121 is ahead. Not today.
Fuzzy hills. Hard to believe that something is growing here.
Green wine jug section marker.
Another ‘real’ section marker.
John is coming.
Easy walking is on ridges.
Lot of goosenecks down there.
Mud hills.
Made it to our far SM with a register signed by Paul F.
Our group here. Wit is staying low. So to whom is that finger? Or is it a one and half finger Victory sign?
Looking south from back of the Elephant Knees.
Hersch and I are going up.
First we have to stop at Elephant Knees SM.
Here it is.
Mud hills maze is waiting for us.
On a way down.
About in the middle.
Almost down.
Made it.
Our complete small group. Good hike.
