Junction of the Wagon and Wasno Ridge roads.

Had originally planned on turning north here and taking the north route over Wilson Peak, but was too tired to consider another climb. Next trip.

Rodeo Pond along the Wagon Road. From here it was retracing the early portion of the trip,

Large white cow looks up at large white hiker.

Cow still blocking the path.

As I approached, the cow moved down the trail a bit and turned around to see what I was up to...

... and then decided to block the path completely.

I am apparently really interesting to cows.

Back to the trailhead and parking lot at about 5 after 9 hours on the trail. Ran into a few hikers in the last mile, which were the only people I saw all day. The sun didn't come out once during the whole hike, though it never did end up raining.
