One of the purposes of the Desert Peaks Section is to " Explore the desert ranges of California And the Southwest". To further this purpose, the DPS management committee has decided to become more active in supporting trips to non-listed peaks. This section of the website contains unofficial climbing guides to unlisted peaks. These guides are placed here for your convenience. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of these guides. They may contain errors or be out of date. Use them at your own risk. We are actively soliciting more guides for this site.
