Nice pic. I think I smell pine pitch and can see my breath.

What's the name of those cool bearing tree placards the USFS nails to trees?

I think their called Bearing Tree tags. They are also known by their ordering name 54-4s or something like that. I think I've heard them called Ktags to.

They were BLM tags, and recent. We lucked out that they'd been in here this year and cleared it out for us and set new BTs. It was a heck of a climb up from the river below to get to this one and so steep, elected to go over the top of the mountain to get back rather than trying to climb back down. It's a healthy respect of gravity thing rather than a fear of heights.

You only have to toss the limbs a few feet and they fall a few hundred. This aerial view gives a much better perspective.

Judging by the deformities on that poor horse it must be near Yucca mountain.
Hope you took your iodine pills.

That looks extremely steep, the photos always seem to flatten out the terrain, and with snow and probably some ice. You don't want to visit that one more than the one time.
