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?

More peak bagging in the Silver Peak Range! Grand views of the edge of the Great Basin and more from atop Rhyolite Ridge.

Spending a day by the warm water of the Fish Lake Valley Hot Well, looking at the fish and birds and landscape. May have touched the water, too.
