Here's the main map,
of a trip I took Dec 01/2016.
I went counterclockwise. |

Symbolic baby seat
before Summerlin
Peak. |

Shedding Bighorn. |
 |

We go up here.
There is a rabbit
hole route to avoid
scary stuff. |

I've dropped down 600',
and head west, I was
technically on Las Vegas
Ready-Mix land here, but
200' to the left and I would
be on BLM land. View SW. |

View S, where we
want to go. |

After passing by
a concrete dam,
one gets into the
canyon proper. |

The 1st ladder is
at left. |

View down
1st ladder. |

The 2nd ladder
is at right. This
one is overhanging;
if your pack is
substantial, you may
want to trail it from
a cord and haul it
up. else it will tilt
you backwards. |

Top of 2nd ladder |

The anchors at top
2nd ladder are
substantial and would
make a decent rap
anchor -- no
more than 20m
rope needed. |

Heading S. The
tree is about 20' high. |

At this obstacle,
the right
path is easy. |

Tree is again about
20' tall |
 |

This is the major
obstacle; camera
is pointed up about
45 degrees. This
is the left (east) side,
a slick chute. |

This it the right
side same obstacle.
It is a bit more
climbey and dumps
onto a class 5
boulder. |

I went left, wriggled
awkwardly. Then at
top I noticed a rap sling. |

Now I'm at the big
junction. I went
right (west). |
 |

View back. |

Right side of
chockstone is easy. |

view back |

tabulate coral. |

Near top of Gottlieb. |
 |

View back E over
Woody. |
 |

I was surprised to read
Ed's comment. I looked
hard for a register in 2004,
but found none. I suspect
the cairn collapsed and
crushed his Gatorade
jar. |
 |
 |

View W |

Many attributed a
religious meaning to
Gottlieb ("God loves"
in German). Actually
I named it after a
former boss who
metaphorically "looked
down on Summerlin."
In 1999, we would go
outside and name these
peaks after our bosses as
a joke. |

Broader view W. |

Woody to E. |
 |

Probably same sheep I
saw in morn, but had
moved about 0.2 miles. |

Vegas to E. |
