View of the traverse from North to Diablo. The road led down to the saddle at Prospectors Gap and then a single track circled around to the left climbing to the summit.

View of Mt. Olympia (the left and lower bump) from near the North Peak summit. The road was dry, steep, and gravelly and it was slow going to avoid losing my footing.

Somewhat confisingly, the trail on the slopes of Diablo is the North Peak Trail. This small spring fed creek was the first water I had seen since crossing Donner Creek early in the day.
