Bouldering at Calico Basin

Yesterday I spent 5 hours exploring higher elevations of the Calico Basin area. I was hoping to find Bighorn sheep, but instead found brilliant colors, endless caves and challenging scrambles. I don't recommend doing this hike alone, it can be a bit dangerous.




If you look carefully, you can see the famous Las Vegas strip at the top of the picture.












Partially frozen watering hole.





Fungus among us.
