Getting closer to Hell's Gate (where Beatty Cutoff ends at Daylight Pass Road)

Even though I can't see where my road is going, from my maps I figure that Hell's Gate is straight ahead in front of those mountains.

As for Monarch Canyon, today's destination, it's somewhere up in the mountains to my right. In fact, there's a trail (not open to bikes) near here that goes from this road to the base of a cliff above which Monarch Canyon ends.
