Mount Ta Ta

Mount Ta Ta - at least that is what Paul calls it.  The USGS marker says Tit.  Any Day Hikers were heading up on a day we were unavailable, so Paul sent us the info and we did scouting for the group.  Our big finding was no trail register on top.  Other than that it is easy to meander over to the few pictographs, see the semi-modern graffiti as well, admire the grinding holes, visit a mining prospect, and then ascend the peak.  We did all this, ate our lunch from the top admiring the views, and were back home by 1PM.  Not bad with an 8:30AM start.


Our destination for the day.  What would you name it?


This was created in 1961. Let's hope today's Boy Scouts (or at least the leaders) would know better.

Aardvark???  Ok, so maybe deer is more likely.

  1. I would love to see the bedrock mortars. Do you have a gaia map of the trail you took and suggestion where the pictographs are?

    And yes, I've always called that small mountain "Squaw's Tit" for the last 50 years. No idea why...
