| Once a parking spot was secured, the rest of the hike was the easy part. Nice hike although I had a calf muscle that thinks I"m picking on it. Lots of people. | |

| Climbed from the north side with Ezra Danciu and Todd James. Bring plenty of water even early in the morning. Todd ran out and begged some guy for a drink. Hahaha! Awesome view from the top. | |

| I've climbed it nine times during 2000-2009. Always a fun scramble via Echo Canyon. | |

| Hiked up via Echo Canyon in the morning, before the sun made it all the way over the mountain. It's a fun scramble——plenty of boulders and rocks, but nothing too dicey. Awesome desert scenery and great views of the Valley of the Sun from the top. | ||

| I lived in Tempe for 4 years in the early '90s but somehow never decided to go climb Camelback. Finally did so. Pics and Commentary here. | |

| chewbachman | Awesome Hike! Date Climbed: Apr 10, 2011 | |
| Great hike via Summit Trail! A little steaper then I had originally planned but that made the experience even better. I can't wait to go back and do it again. | |

| Great little hike, great city views. The hike was made more challenging by the crowds of people coming down while I was going up. | |

| Yep, that would be masochistic me, hiking Camelback in the middle of August during the hottest part of the day. | |

| Enapai | From Echo Canyon Date Climbed: Apr 30, 2010 | |
| Went for a short jaunt while on vacation. I was lucky to get into the parking area. The Fire Department was on scene and while I was on the summit a rescue helicopter landed and ferried someone off to the hospital. Very nice views. Temps were moderate. | |

| I've climbed it many times, but as someone still learning, I enjoy it throughly every time- total IPod friendly jaunt. 5/7/10 is probably the last time I'll get to climb it during the summer after work, as the rocks at 4:30 in the afternoon are insanely hot in spots. | |

| PapaBanucci | Hiked while in town on business Date Climbed: Mar 23, 2010 | |
| From the hotel and back. Lots of tourists. Nobody else running it when I was on it. I think I had a good time up and especially down. I can't say I really like blue paint on rocks though. | |
