Near the top of the North Peak Ridge; snow-covered Griffith Peak is in back. |
First view of Bridge from "dragon" overlook. |

The last ramp after Hidden Forest. |

The Tinaja E of the peak. |

I tricked Dagmar into providing perspective. |

After these folks passed, I realized it was 2 groups, one of which was the Hiking Las Vegas group lead by Rick Brown. |

Up the 2nd chute. |
This is the breciated sandstone just beneath the the overthrust limestone. |
Next we went to North Peak. |
Then we went by the shelter... |
To the Buffalo Wall overlook. |

Karl noticed this message in the puddle on the overlook! |
