Starting along the 1000 Steps Trail.


Leave the 1000 Steps Trail and head up a no-trail gully toward the B-36 Crash Site.





B-36 Crash Site


B-36 Crash Site memorial.


Continue up the gully from the B-36 Crash Site.

You get to an "overlook" where you can see the crash site. That peak ahead is what I "thought" was Ranger Peak...

...however, maps mark the radio tower pictured here as the Ranger Peak summit. I dunno.

At the Ranger Peak register, which again is misleading because this clearly isn't a summit. So, I scrambled up that butte ahead.

Along the Ranger Peak ridgeline. A fun very easy Class 3 scramble.

Looking back toward what maps mark as Ranger Peak, but clearly it's much lower than where I am.

Approaching a higher point.

Looking north toward South Franklin Mountain a cairn marking what I assume is the actual Ranger Peak.

Heading back down from Ranger Peak, along an actual trail that I had overlooked.

Continue down the 1000 Steps Trail.

1000 Steps Trail leads back to the trailhead.
