Ida Gulch---from Castle Valley Road to south ridge

A nice foot trail ascended the initial slope. The trail faded out atop the south ridge, from which I had a
glorious view of the valley below. From the ridge to the middle of the valley I had to make my way
across hill and dale without the benefit of a trail. At times, avoiding the cryptobiotoc soil was a challenge.
Topographic map: USGS Big Bend, Utah (1:24,000).
