Muddy High Point, NV (Near Lake Mead)

pics by Harlan W. S.
Jan. 11, 2003

 

This peak is actually the highpoint of the Muddy Mountains.  I saw it from Muddy Peak on Jan 01, 2003, and decided I must return.

 

I took these pics a long time back, and never thought I would ever process them.

I was still recovering from the stroke;

I wanted to do my balance, but

a torn hamstring made me settle for this

 emulation of Muddy Peak (in back).

These peaks on the S side of Lovell

Canyon look wild and neat.
