About Cady Mountains
The Cady Mountains are a small, isolated mountain range located in eastern California, just north of the Mojave Desert. The range is characterized by rugged, rocky terrain with steep slopes and narrow canyons carved by intermittent streams. Elevations range from around 4,000 feet at the base to over 7,000 feet at the highest peaks. The landscape is dominated by pinyon-juniper woodlands, with scattered pockets of chaparral and desert scrub at lower elevations.
