Starting along the dirt road where my car couldn't get past. Cookes Peak is in the center.

Turn left up an eroded dirt road that doesn't allow motor vehicles. Cairns start to markt he route.

Headed up the canyon northeast of Cookes Peak - Cookes Peak visible ahead.

A social trail continues up the canyon, occasionally crossing the creekbed, and pretty easy to follow the whole way.



Out of the canyon and switchbacking up to the east ridge of Cookes Peak.

Cookes Peak ahead. The route follows the ridge seen in this photo.

Looking back down the way I came.

Cookes Peak, just a ridgeline away.
