To the east is Sandstone Peak. You can tell it from the antenna next to it...
|
|
 |
...And because this points it out!

Starting up the trail to Sandstone Peak. There are only stairs at the very beginning. The rest of the trail is much more primitive and rugged.
|
|
|
|
 |
There are lots of people near the top.

Channel Islands in the distance

Looking west, we can see Boney Mtn Summit (rightmost peak) and Tripeaks in the middle.

 |
From Sandstone Peak, we can see Balanced Rock in the far distance to the north-east, and below us...

 |
...zooming in a bit to get a better view

You can also see where are cars are parked at the Mishe Mokwa trailhead

There's a big rut here. I wonder how big that will get with El Nino rains

On the connector to get us back to Mishe Mokwa Trail

It's pretty rugged in this spot!

Turning right onto the Mishe Mokwa Trail
