Peak 5946 is centered in this image, as seen from near where I started

Walking the road toward the lowpoint in the hills, the peak is not visible here

Rounding the pass, there's the peak again

Walking up the slopes, watching out for snakes

A hawk riding the winds, nary a flap, just stationary up there, probably watching for snakes too

Closing in on the top

Summit nigh

Government Peak in the distance

Various summit shots, the highpoint is at top right

Looking back down the slopes as I descend back to the road

A parting view of the peak in better light
