Was it 51 miles from somewhere or the 51st creek crossed. The creek is not noted on the highway #97 not far down stream.

I hiked up there once from the highway to photograph a southbound freight, but think of the photo you could get of an afternoon northbound from that ridge in the distance in photo one. Time to plan my next trip... -L.F. |
