Queen Mountain visible on the right somewhere. We're starting onto the old dirt road.

Old dirt road heads through the desert and up to a small hill.

Over the small hill and down into a desert basin, Queen Mountain ahead.

The road turns into a trail at the base of Queen Mountain and then starts to ascend.

Looking back as we start up the ascent.

Trail with some minor Class 2 as we work up a minor gully.

Looking back down from the top of the gully.

Queen Mountain in the center. The trail skirts the ridge and heads up another gully, pictured center right in this photo.

Approaching the second gully used to access Queen Mountain.

Looking back as we skirt the ridge and head up the second gully.

At the top of the second gully, a bunch of small switchbacks later, and we were at the saddle just east of Queen Mountain.

Austin making a Class 2 move harder than it has to be. We accessed the peak from this gorgeous slickrock slab.

Looking east toward the east summit of Queen Mountain, which isn't the high point.

Queen Mountain summit, view west.

Queen Mountain summit, view south. The car is down there somewhere in the middle.

Two queens of Queen Mountain ;)
