Heading down the cool little notch pass. Amazingly this was an old stock trail at one point.  |
| Another view of scrambling down the pass. Note the spire in the distance. |
| The notch pass is fairly reasonable Class 2/3 hiking, but it is steep and can be a bit intimidating. |
| Don't blindly follow the old stock trail all the way down to the valley below. Look for the shelf exit on the left (north). |
| The view east after the trail descends the sandy slope away from the mountain. |
| Now it's time to pay the piper and traverse 16 irritating gullies. |
| Beautiful desert scenery makes even the annoying sections of this hike interesting. |
| Approaching the wonderful Eagle Crags formations! Once back on the maintained trail, the hiking gets a lot easier again. |
| A view along the Eagle Crags Trail in late afternoon shadow. |
| Early evening along the Eagle Crags Trail. It's always nice to make it out before dark! |
