Shortly after leaving the trailhead, you'll see an abandoned whatever this is.
Granite Peak on the left, Silver Peak on the right.
Keeping slogging through the desert and you'll finally get to these random boulders before beginning the ascent.
Still an obvious dirt road for a little longer, follow the trail toward Silver Peak.
Silver Peak in the center. If you lose the trail, there may be cairns to guide you toward the left. If not, head toward the hump to the south of Silver Peak, not up toward Granite Peak.
The trail gets narrower for a little bit after the road starts to fade.
On top of the hump before the final bit up toward Silver Peak.
Granite Peak in the distance.
Overlooking Kelso Dunes.
The crumbly untrailed section before the summit.

This is looking south toward the trailhead. That big pile of rocks on the left is where my car is hanging out. It looks really far from here.
