hike - black crook peak in the sheeprock mts - November 13, 2021
We plan to bag a rarely climbed Black Crook Peak (9,274 ft), weather, conditions and situation permitting. Black Crook Peak is the highest mountain in the Sheeprock Mountains and is located in the south of Tooele and west of Provo (near Vernon). Black Crook Peak is also one of the Utah prominent peaks and offers excellent desert views. Easy class 3 scrambles. The distance and elevation gain will depend on which route we will take. Due to a long drive (1.5-2 hours one way), expect a long day (the hike itself won't be very long). This route is cross-country and exploratory. Please bring 10 Es. Please email before Friday, 6 pm, November 12, for the meeting place and time. Registration is required. Registration priority will be given to WMC members. Registrants will receive more detailed info. Limit 8. COVID-19 protocols will apply.
