Kingsley 1980 59 27Oct Plummy wash hike, continued be climbed over without roped. Attempting to circumnavigate them we encountered very difficult, dangerous steep terrain, loose rocks, talus, and Bighorn sheep trails. The approximately 1.5 linear miles of the narrower required 5 or 6 hours of work to get through, climbing around the dry falls. Everywhere was sign of big horn. Numerous potholes, some over 6 ft in diameter, were filled with water. Along each route we close around dry falls, we found sheep trails. There were at least 6 falls to go around. 28Oct Finally the canyon opened, dry falls ceased to be a problem. Looking for a spring in a small side canyon (unsuccessfully) I found the entire skeleton of a yearling ram, camped near spring 237, only 2 miles from the road - exhausted). 29Oct Checked spring 237- found 4 trickles of water going down the slope, spread out over a distance of some 2 or 3 hundred yards. Dense growth of Salidago, Mesquite, several grasses. Small (under 1 ft) pools. Considerable Bighorn sign, Ncttong horses. Bighorn tracks in sandy wash all along our route to this spring. Not much water here, but obviously enough to be important to sheep. Continued cross bajada to our vehicles, then headed home.
