Yeah, I know, do I go anywhere else? But had to wrap a few loose ends in these parts and did so.

Started out early(5:15am) and was fine. Light rain sort of put a damper on things but it was really lite. Past the bridge and on to Falls Gulch. Light snow on this side of Iron scared me enough to just head back. Other than Ross/Baden-Powell & Iron it was a beautiful day, clear skies.....

Had enough time, so I went to the same place as last trip. Nice...started to lose energy and got back to the bridge at 2:45pm. But it didnt get dark and I returned back to the car at 4:45pm...some photos...great day, I took like 40 photos...

Narrows again...

Looking towards Devils Gulch/(Mt SHawkins?)...

Ross(top was covered in clouds)/Vincent Gap was barely visible

Looking upstream in Falls Gulch towards Iron

Westside of Iron Mtn(at lower elevations)...

BTN canyon +1 ridge..awesome...

Last storm crossing(or first going upstream)..conditions were back to slighty fast moving stream...notice graffiti as well...this is about 1/2-3/4 mile from the trailhead....

Nice photos! Looks like we got some more snow up there and even at lower elevations.

Nice shots. is BTN canyon an acronym, or just the name?

BTN= just an acryonm for Bridge To Nowhere....
a lot of major looking but actually minor ridges to Iron

this one seems to contain many pine trees...

That first picture of the stream in the narrows is very nice - thanks for sharing.
