Moderate, 4.53 mi out and back/wander

1,089 ft elevation gain

Hiked 11/2/24

I’m not sure if this was a named trail or not, but was out doing a little rockhounding (See Falcon Guides Rockhounding Nevada for info) and did this sort hike in central Nevada. Something about the desolation of these areas has always drawn me, if only shortly. Rock site was a little underwhelming.

A large rolling hill comes to a rocky crest with various desert grasses in autumn under mostly cloudy skies.

A microwave tower stands in the center of the frame in the distance, surrounded by a rocky hillside up close that turns to more desert grasses in the distance.

A small rock pile sits among the desert grasses in late fall. A steep hillside with a small cliff face may be seen to the left while rolling hills may be seen on the right.
