A journey to the high point of the Garfield Hills. It's a 2000 foot prominence peak, so "hills" seems a bit of a misnomer.

Some more peak bagging, but staying warmer by keeping lower. (Probably more useful was the lack of wind.) Exploring some area mining on the way up, too.

A hike to see a striking, but rather short, peak. Then on to a taller, but not so striking, peak. The geology of the Esmeralda Formation (I think) dominates interesting patches along the way.

I set out to get to the top of Silver Peak and finished off Red Mountain too. Who could turn down that ridge walk?

I was 9 years old on my first camping trip to a tiny canyon at the Desatoya Mountains… I hope to visit it again some day.
My stepdad was sworn to secrecy about The Dens, so don’t tell anyone.
