Late start, late finish. Coyote Buttes South in the evening light.
We went Full exploration of CBS with photography focus starting at 5:35 AM. Similar to North, but generally quieter. Sand and slickrock mix, GPS essential.
Light was best in the first two hours.
Overall 5/5. Difficulty 3/5. Scenery 5/5.
Worth every bit of effort.
