Dogskin Mountain, view toward Benchmark Summit

11 Feb 2022 5 6 229
View northwesterly; the Benchmark Summit (2275 m/7464 ft) is the high point at the end of the ridge we're on just right of center. The Honey Lake Basin is the distant valley beyond, in California. There _should_ be lots more snow at this time; Jan 2022 was the driest on record, with zero recorded precipitation. We're just below the true summit (2282 m/7487 ft) here.
