"Drove down to this interesting area from Vegas to take advantage of the cool weather this weekend. We bagged Mescal Range Highpoint & Climax Peak. We hiked from a dirt road up to the saddle between the 2 summits & followed the ridge west to Mescal Range HP, then traversed back across the ridgeline to Climax Peak. From there, we descended the steep west face, instead of following the ridge back to the saddle.
All was good until I hit a giant boulder at about 15-20mph that was hidden behind a bush on the side of a narrow dirt road. This blew out the front left tire on the Jeep. We were able to jack up the Jeep & change the tire, but there was something else wrong, so we drove it (slowly) to the pavement and called a friend to make the 60 mile drive to pick us up. Joy.
