"Bird Spring Range 5 peak Jaunt. Peak 5,140’, Escarpment Peak, Joshua Peak, Cottonwood Peak North & Mount Crypto.16 miles, 3,600’ gain, 6:23hrs. Cool and Windy day. A large area had been destroyed by a recent fire and looked like barren wasteland. Some tall yuccas were scorched ghosts of their former selves. There were scant amounts of wildflowers so I made sure to take photos of what I saw since it was my 1st time all year seeing a variety (or any) of them. I saw a snake too. Long hard day. I named & added Mount Crypto to the Peakery database since it had an old geocache with the name Crypto on it. (It needs a pencil) I’m not sure if this Northern Cottonwood peak is higher than the Southern (Northern) one. My gps shows the Southern one is slightly higher. " — paula.raimondi • Apr 26, 2021
"Hiked up here with LVMC. We took the North Ridge up to the summit & took the NW ridge down. This was a nice, easy, scenic hike with lots of fossils in the rocks. Came to about 5.5 miles r/t with about 1500 feet of gain. The rain made it interesting." — Kevin • Nov 20, 2016
