Looking west. In the background is Mustang Peak, which was on my "maybe" list of places to visit on this trip. Long Ridge Road eventually goes by Mustang Peak after climbing the mountain and following the ridge top.

I'm out of drinking water now, but camp is only 3/4 mile away.

Lo and behold, I pass a jackrabbit along here.
