06-29-13. Woollyback, Bighorn Sheep Point, and the East Shelf

Looks like you climbed Woollyback, then headed cross-country SE, then descended the drainage toward Golden Trout Camp to get back on the Cottonwood Lakes trail. I've done that route - very pleasant terrain. Bighorn Sheep Point? East Shelf?

Yeah. It's nice up there. Others had been there recently. Fresh boot prints here and there.

I am not familiar with Bighorn Sheep Point or the East Shelf. Are you on another naming spree?

Secor does it quite regularly...
...and I'm of the opinion that we're entitled to beat him to it.

I don't mind; I like Horseshoe Peak, for example. I would like to know the locations of these features.

Bighorn Sheep Point (36.507022, -118.175710)

Thanks - I think I'll check it out in a few weeks...
