I parked before this creek.

Along the powerline road, Salt Creek Peak seen ahead.

I came from the left, Mount Nebo seen in the distance. I headed up this spur road which took me to the east to the minor ridge seen above.

I left the road and headed south along the remains of a trail along the spur ridge.

Mostly clear hiking, with some lightly brushy sections. Salt Creek Peak seen ahead.

Progress up the slopes, where hints of the old trail pop in and out.

View back. I came from the center of this photo.

Steep section. Switchbacks lead a bit of the way up, then trails lead all over. I recommend keeping to the left of the red-brown conglomerate rock ahead.

Past the steep section, heading into the forest.

There's a social trail, but it might be hard to miss on the way up.

Overgrown section.

Continuing along the ridge crest, using a social trail when I could find it.

Cool cliffy features along the ridge.

False summit seen ahead.

Steep bit through the forest, where a trail was sometimes easy to follow.

View back at my progress up the ridge. Mount Nebo in the distance.

The final bit of hiking to gain the ATV road, which I found on the hump ahead.

Semblance of a trail on the way up to the hump.

Top of the hump. An ATV road leads almost to the summit from here.


View back along the ATV road.

Sort descent along the ATV road before a final push to the summit.

View back along the ATV road.

Salt Creek Peak ahead. I left the road shortly in order to ascend the peak's north ridge.

Along the north ridge, somewhat of a social trail available.

View back, just below the summit.
