The top of Mica Mountain is pretty neat country. When I was working there, we would do an early morning patrol that ringed the summit, from Manning Camp to Reef of Rock, the fire tower, and Helen's Dome.

That summer taught me that I was a hiker, not a horseman, among many other things.

Just curious about ocelots - are they present in the area? I mentioned feral cats, because when I worked there, there were supposed to be feral cattle lurking around Rincon Peak, allegedly very stealthy. Must have been true, because we never saw any.....:)
