West Spruce Mountain Trail, just past the trailhead.

Along the ridgeline.

View back the way I came. The Sunset Lookout is somewhat visible along the road, a popular lookout point for ATVers.

Humps along the ridge. Thumb Butte seen right, Granite Mountain left.

Nicely forested walk along the ridge.

Granite Mountain visible in the distance.

Descending a bit along the West Spruce Trail.

Close-up of Granite Mountain.

West Spruce Mountain seen ahead.

The trail wraps around most little humps, like the one ahead.


View back toward the dip in the ridgeline that I'd have to reascend on the way back.

The trail begins to climb a bit more steeply,

View back along some switchbacks. Thumb Butte seen left. The trailhead is right of center out of view.


Forested switchbacks.

View back, shortly before reaching the dirt service road.

Along the road, which leads to a gate seen ahead. I went through the gate and located a social trail on the left.

The social trail doesn't last too long, but once I lost it the slope wasn't too brushy overall.
