The peak at dawn

We went up this ramp

The ridges that eventually get to the top

The top is up ahead

Getting closer

At the last saddle

Matthias walks up the final few feet, me on top, now Matthias is walking out, a phasmid (walking stick) on the summit

The summit block, with Harquahala Mountain in the background

View east of the ridge we walked up

Looking east at Black Butte backlit bu the sun, Aguila lies below us, and two views of the old stone structures at the end of the road
