Round Top Outcrop in CA!

Round Top Outcrop in CA!

This awesome photo comes courtesy of Dean. He said that this prime piece of California granite was so HOT, that he had to shield his eyes with cheap sunglasses when he looked at it. This comes from the 'Round Top' trip he completed with Dennis in the totally amazing Mokelumne Wilderness, somewhere between Fourth of July Lake and Winnemucca Lake, and a massive cloud of mosquitoes!! Seriously, a landmark called 'The Sisters' was very close by, so these men were in very GOOD company, I'm sure!!! :) Nestled between Hwy 88 and Hwy 4, Mokelumne Wilderness spans THREE National Forests - Eldorado, Toiyabe and Stanislaus. Its deep, glacially carved and forested canyons at elevations as low as 4,000ft. yield to dark, rocky ridges and fantastic summits of volcanic rock. Round Top (10,381'), is its highest peak. Compared with other parts of the Sierra Nevada, Mokelumne Wilderness has uncrowded trails, expansive scenery, verdant, rolling, rock-crowned ridges and plenty of lakes for swimming and fishing. And when this photo was taken, the Mokelumne Wilderness had Dean and Dennis !!!!!!!!!!!
