Dominguez Mountain:  Monday, 10JAN05

For the 2005 Geology students, Dominquez Mountain was the prime research objective (see their geology map)The goal was to acquire ground reflectance readings there.   ALL students completed the climb.  The photo above, from Talley summit, shows the alternate approach across Elephant Tusk.  We opted for Dominguez Trail.

Still, this was a long 24 km, 14 hour hike. We felt it later.
