Went up a side wash from Cleopatra Wash that was the most direct route to the peak that I could see. The side chute out of that wash was a little challenging. Took a few minutes and tries to get by a choke stone blockage in the chute. Other than that it was a good, very direct route. Left Egypt Peak and traversed the top of the ridge line connecting to Cleopatra Peak. A couple of challenges, but nothing over class 3. Mainly followed the big horn sheep trails. From Cleopatra peak I descended a number of washes to get me to the Cleopatra Wash where it meets Lake Mead. Returned to TH by going up Cleopatra wash. NOTE: If you choose to follow my track be aware that I am an advanced scrambler and that I will go up, down, through areas that some people may not feel comfortable going. The track should be used for general directions only.
