These pictures are from Saturday mid-day where we visited and some of our group climbed the Black Rock for which the Black Rock Desert is named.
Some of us walked up to a saddle on the front side of the Black Rock, unaware at the time that we were actually already half way up. Bryan KF6ZEO, Gary KG6CGA and Jeremy KE6JJJ attempted to climb further. Bryan was the only one who made it to the top.
