OK, I'm almost down at the bottom of the hill and I can see bits of dry Red Creek down in the canyon below

I pass a marker indicating that the trail continues straightahead (which seems obvious to me)

What I don't realize is that I'm at a junction with a faint trail. Turning left up the steep hill here leads to the Rooster Comb Summit (that's marked on the side of the post that I'm not looking at).

The other thing I don't realize is that I'm looking at Robison Mountain, my alleged destination. I should be looking at my map, but I'm too consumed by hiking bliss.
