August 1: Red Hills

This was one of the most strenuous days of our trek and marked our most remote campsite. On leaving Black Mountain, we hiked up the creek for several hours, after which the trail made a steep ascent to the shoulder of a mountain called 'Big Red', located in a rugged corner of the ranch featuring a number of significant peaks, including Comanche Peak and Mount Phillips. We then descended to Red Hills camp via a treacherous and steep trail that went straight down the mountain in a narrow gully. After catching our breath and making camp we made a side hike to Mount Phillips. I wimped out when I thought that we were on the wrong trail, but those who made the hike were treated to one of the best views of the trip. Alas, my camera and I both missed the views.
