Looking for photos of Tortilla Mtn.

[LDWhitneyAuthor]

Howdy all,

I'm doing a little research for my novel and I was hoping some of you had photos of the area in and around Tortilla Mountain? I'm just looking for pictures of scenery to get an idea of the scope and ruggedness of the area. How one might traverse it on foot or horseback, as well.

If this isn't the appropriate place, I'm happy to move the thread.

Many thanks!

LDWhitney, I am not aware of an easier/quicker way in here other than the N/E. The below sketch shows a place to park(red arrow) but not sure if parking restricted today. There is a good easy trail South-yellow dashes-that goes by the mtn. You can see this trail clear on GE. I believe the green dashes are the Peralta Mule Trail from the stone maps. Orange are possible ways to the top.

Thanks so much. This is awesome. I know you have posted photos of Peters Canyon in other threads. Do you have any more of the scenery in that area?

Still looking for photos? I’m heading up to the top tomorrow and will be taking a bunch.
