Starting along a spur road.

Heading up to the right off the spur road on a deforested slope.

Looking back as I make my way up the slope.

Jacks Mountains visible on the left, Peak 7397 on the right. I'll be traversing over those.

View back the way I came as I entered a forested section.

Yay trees! I thought maybe I'd have to bushwhack, but there was an old road that then faded into very thin tree growth, making hiking up bushwhack-free.

Sawmill Mountain ahead on the left, out of frame. Some minor 'shwacking.

View back the way I came.
