| lizrdboy | Great Hike ![]() Date Climbed: Feb 10, 2008 | |
| It was a beautiful day in Big Bend. 75 deg with a slight breeze. The trail on this mountain is good and very well marked. The final rocky section is not hard but has some good exposure. Great summit though the weather station is probably not necessary. We celebrated the hike with a few beers in the hot springs. Don't miss them! | ||

| With James Brown. My first real "summit," I think. We had a great 3 day backpacking trip in the Chisos mountains, and really enjoyed the summit scramble. | ||

| weeds19 | From Juniper Canyon ![]() Date Climbed: Nov 23, 2001 | |
| We camped near Juniper Canyon with a large group of family and hiked a ways up the canyon the next day. Most folks turned around, but I continued a couple more miles to the peak. Great views of a very cool part of our country! | ||

| Loop hike with Nga around to the South Rim and back to the visitor center, tagging Toll Mtn and Emory Peak along the way. Nice views from the summit (despite the antennas, ugh). | ||

| Stu Brandel | Long Loop Highlight ![]() Date Climbed: Jan 5, 2007 | |
| Did a day hike loop: Laguna to South Rim to North Rim to Pinnacles, and added this peak since I was going back home to flat Illinois. Very icy and slick, especially going down. I volunteer to take down the antennas from the summit at a reasonable rate. | ||

| Me and 3 of my friends were hiking the South Rim/Pinnacles trail for two days and climbed Emory Peak on our way back to Chisos Mountains Base. Beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and desert! | ||

| definitely scrambling at the end is awesome, as well as the relative lack of people along the trail, mostly runnning into backpackers. incredibly gorgeous hike though, with an even more gorgeous far-ranging view at the end | ||

| Nice hike here. My dad and I hiked up at a pretty leisurly pace. Nice views of the window and Chisos. That scrambling at the top was fun. Pretty windy up top though. I guess it would be too easy without it. | ||

| Bassoon | The beginning... ![]() | |
| of my peak bagging addiction. First time I hiked up on a Spring Break trip- shared the summit with at least 20 others. Second time up had the whole trail to myself and sat on the summit for 45 minutes without seeing another soul. Always do the Pinnacles Trail, which is steep coming from sea level. Laguna Meadows trail is a bit longer, but more gentle. | ||

| The skies were clear as crystal. Very few visitors to the park today. I was alone on the summit, basking in sunshine. Temps up to 70 in the Chisos basin. | ||
