22.12.14 Kay BM, The Sirens, Tuck BM, Pk 4014, Webo BM, Ted BM, Borrego Ridge
Kay BM, The Sirens, Tuck BM, Pk 4014, Webo BM, Ted BM I was very excited to have my first long desert day in a very long while. I had planned out a big great loop starting from the bottom of Montezuma grade. I was going to start at the Hellhole Canyon Trailhead/Maidenhair Falls TH but it turns out its $10 just to park and have access to a vault toilet. I didn’t have $10, so I parked about 1000ft down the road completely off the pavement and called it fine. I ended up not getting a ticket so I’ll count it as a win. Coyote & Santa Rosas Indianhead Sirens (center) Parked My planned route was to take the ridge just left of the ridge containing Ode BM, follow that up to Kay BM, pick my way up to Sirens, then hit up Tuck and 4014 on the way to Webo, follow the ridge down to Ted BM and then walk back across the desert floor to my car. I had been a bit worried about the steepness of this route but now that I could see it in person it didn’t look too bad – quite doable actually...
