Lots of water in Horsethief Creek on the way in. The way up Sheep was somewhat confusing, I ended up climbing to a saddle and then following the ridge up. Great views of Coachella Valley, San Jacinto and San Gorgoino.

The gully up to Martinez is steep. Lower part is brushy, upper part is solid. Fun class 3 summit block with amazing views of the rest of the Santa Rosa range and the Salton Sea.

Long walk back to the car, especially the climb back out of the creek.
