Saddle Mountain (Patagonia Mountains)
March 28, 2026


2024: From the south a couple miles away


Now from the east, still far away

2026: As seen from where I started my hike


About halfway in


Views of the summit cliffs and some of the climbing therein


Summit!


Looking the other way


A couple more views of the peak, plus its benchmark and one of the reference markers.
