Decided to hike up Sulphur Mountain with the possibility of going beyond the historic cosmic ray observatory. Conditions were good, and I felt good so I hopped over the fence and went to the next bump, which is actually where Sanson Peak is according to the maps. A bit of sidesloping and then on the ridge. On the way back I probably collected a garbage bag of junk.
