Is that a look out to Mount Jefferson from the Mount Mitchell Trail?

 

It is from the Rimrock Trail with Oak Grove Butte blocking most of Mt Jefferson in the background with smoke from the Bull of the Woods fires last fall. So you are correct.

Your turn to post.

You know, I only got that because I went up there last fall during all the fires. I took a guess because it looked so similar to my photos from that day.

You guys will probably get this really fast, but what the hey...you'll guess everything else I have too within a day or two.

Pretty generic, could be any of several high elevation sidehill trails, but I will guess its on the one from Baty Butte to June Lake.

I also think Baty Butte, but not towards Joyce Lake, but rather on the east side of the butte, dropping down to the ridge towards Skookum.

We have a winner.Your turn!

Also: how are the roads to the other Baty Butte trailheads? I've only been there via Skookum Lake and would love to hike the trail from the other end.

We were there last year (I think it was last year) and the 7010 road was washed out at Blister Creek.  They were working on fixing it, but I don't know what the status is.  The washout was not on the FS website.  Other than the washout, the roads are pretty good.  There is one partial washout you need to be careful of on 7010, but most of the road is in exceptionally good shape.  The 160 spur is in GREAT shape.  It doesn't really seem like a spur road....
