Timed it for golden hour on Coyote Buttes South.
We went Full exploration of CBS with photography focus starting at 6:25 AM. Winter visits required early starts for good light. No maintained trail, navigation skills required.
Midday light was harsh but the shadows added drama.
Overall 4/5. Difficulty 5/5. Scenery 4/5.
Already planning the next one.
Quick notes:
- Check weather the morning of.
- Sunglasses are not optional.
- Test new gear before the trip.
