EISPIRATEN

Looks like.... fun...

Great job making it to BHR! Nice writeup.

Yeah, so glad I didn't head into the brush with you guys. I watched for a while - every once in awhile a head would pop up out of the bushes then disappear again. Not my idea of fun.

What was the side trip up that gully on the east side of Cattle Cyn. all about? That ain't the shortcut!

Here's a link to my pics.

Ze, nice work, must be carrying around some shears to cut your way through some of that crap? Great Trip Report, good pictures.

Hike UP I figured out why they call you Hike Up - you're so tall it's all uphill for you

Nice Pictures Hike UP

great job ze&group...ooo la la ..confined spaces... some of the time at least...I was just thinking of that hike during the summer at 100 degrees

Wow, that brush looks thick .........Im surprised you didnt run into any wild animals while crawling through it....... well cool pics, and I hope you did an excellent tick check when you got home......... 8)

Yeah, there was a bit of confusion about the canyon. As you know I wasn't sure. Needless to say that when the canyon just disappeared, that wasn't good

I actually descended from the "Window" a hundred ft or so at the beginning of the trek. It was doable in that part though steep. Seemed to get a little less steep down below. Closer to the bottom one would be more concerned with the brush, but hey after that day it didn't matter.

I wouldn't suggest it as a shortcut though. And next time I go, I don't plan on coming back down Cattle Canyon

Heh, no shears. Just hands, which I used to break a lot of branches. I need to get some gardener gloves for this crap!

I did see some animal pooh in a few spots There was a nice sized present on top of the ridge, near the intersection of a few of these game trails. I wonder what from...

I was just trying to see what I would look like if I was as tall as Alan.

You guys are crazy. Dang Ze, you sure know how to torture yourself. But I'm glad you have fun doing it. Thats what it's all about.

That wasn't me -- it was my son Eric.
