Talley Mountain 

Friday, 09JAN04

On this traverse the objective was also to obtain rock samples and on-site spectrometer readings.  Beginning at 5:30 AM, we completed our tasks at twelve sites and were back at camp by 8 PM, where we promptly had to assist a visitor (and his dog) stranded by motor trouble.  Talley's summit was particularly difficult to reach, as it has no trails and is completely ringed with 25m cliffs.
