At about 2.8 miles, Buckeye Canyon turns and we get our first views of the rugged granite mountains at the end of the canyon. There are flowers everywhere. Here it is mule ears and lupin. Not visible are fields of iris that have passed their peak

The last of the meadows. At 6.5 miles, the trail enters "The Roughs", the narrow canyon at the end of the flat area. Eagle Peak and Victoria Peak are on the left, with the Flatiron Ridge on the right.
After 2 miles on Buckeye Trail, we begin to see green meadows, Jeffery Pine, and higher sections of Flatiron Ridge

Looking north form the ridge near Eagle Peak towards Buckeye Canyon, with Wheeler Peak and Mt. Patterson in the distance and the Bridgeport Reservoir in the upper right.
Meadows below Eagle Peak near campsite.
Shows route down from Victoria Peak (exterme right) to the bowl. While the terrain is sometimes steep, there are no rocky drop-offs or large blocks of talus that are typical of high Sierra Peaks. View looks over Sawtooth Ridge into Yosemite.
Panorama from route up Eagle Peak: Twin Peaks are on the left. The Matterhorn is in the center with closer unnamed peaks of Sawtooth Ridge in the right center.
Looking across Robinson Canyon towards Sawtooth Ridge with the Matterhorn on the extreme left. Twin Lakes are below, but not visible.
