This route was developed from a climb of Chemehuevi Mountain on March 13,
2004.  Chemehuevi is in San Bernardino County, California, south of the town
of Needles on the east side of highway 95.  This route is different from the
standard route used by the Desert Peaks Section.  CHM00 is the turn off
highway 95 on a power line road going southeast.  At CHM01 turn left (north)
on a dirt road and go 2.0 miles and park at CHM02.  Hike east through two
low passes in the small Sawtooth Mountain Range.  Head east across a valley
and up to a low point on a ridge at CHM05.  Then descend the other side and
turn left (east) up a canyon and toward CHM06.  Head up to a ridge top at
CHM07 at about 2880 feet.  Then descend and cross over several drainages
to CHM08 at the base of the final chute up to the top.  The route is 3.7 miles
one-way with a gain of about 2500 feet and will require about 3 1/2 hours for
the ascent.  3/04  RLC
