Starting along the long desert slog out to Chemehuevi Peak (center).

Lots of wildflowers on the way out.


Within the major wash that goes to the base of Chemehuevi Peak.



The wash begins to get choked with boulders, leading to the drainage in the center.

Looking back down the wash on the way up through the drainage.

A dripping waterfall along the way.

Looking back down the drainage.

Approaching the top of the drainage.

A social trail leads on the left side of the drainage's head, where lots of brush chokes the streambed. At the top of this drainage, the route turns east and heads up to Chemehuevi Peak.

Chemehuevi Peak ahead, Class 2 slope before it.

My chosen gully, where I also spotted a couple of cairns.

Looking down the gully I came up.

Last bit to the summit.

Chemehuevi Peak, looking west toward the way I came up.
