Thanks for the suggestions Florian. I'm really looking forward to getting out there soon.

Ah, ok. Thanks Zip. I've been on the road near the peak but not sure i've been on the actual peak itself. Just didn't recognize the Eureka Peak name.

The area around Queen Mountain is good also out of the Pine City Back Country Board. A lot of day use only areas but they are easy to stay south of (South of Queen Mountain and Pine City) for camping. To the East of the board is the Eagle Mountain Cliffs that are a lot fun to explore, the Desert Queen Wash is a fine place to camp. If you are interested in peaks, Queen Mountain and Negro Hill are fun.

The area around Quail Mountain is good too, this area is a bit more rugged and a lot more off trail.
