| BLong | Guadalupe  Date Climbed: Mar 29, 2008 | |
| I headed up Guadalupe this past spring with two good friends. We had a great hike, camped out near the summit, and headed for the top to watch the sunrise. All in all a great trip! I highly recommend reading passages from the Tao Te Ching as the sun sets. | |

| Back in 2003 this was the first mountain I ever climbed. It was great. A refreshing change from Gainesville, FL. | |

| AFmountaineer | COLD ! Date Climbed: Jan 26, 2005 | |
| The hike started off comfortable but when we got above El Capitan it was so cold and windy that I couldn't feel my face so I did not really enjoy the summit. I just wanted down. | |

| Fun quick hike. Surprised to see no snow or ice at all. Got cold very quickly on the summit. | |

| OOPS I took the wrong trail for a couple of miles. Went back to the car, and started again. Great summit. A little icey. | |

| I climbed this beautiful mountain in 2006. I under estimated this mountain, but still made it. We were stormed on, but that made it that much more exciting. Your pictures are great and beautiful to look at. | |

| Too bad we didn't see any - it was foggy and raining the whole way up and most of the way down. Maybe next time. | |

| After spending a windy night below where every tent in the campground was wrecked except mine, a fabric tube tent, we awoke covered in dust. We climbed the draw to the north of El Cap then on to the summit which wasn't too windy and rather pleasent. | |

| I forget the exact date. I almost screwed myself descending off-trail down a canyon. The rappel slings should have been a dead giveaway. There I was downclimbing what felt like 5.9 fifty feet off the deck. | |

| grimbley | Late Start Date Climbed: Mar 13, 2005 | |
| Got on the trail with 4 others a little late in the day which meant coming down in the dark. Wasn't to bad though and the views were great, mostly undisturbed. Met up with some sort of cat on the way down but scared it off. | |

| My second time to summit this great peak. Me and two others climbed late afternoon to witness the best sunset I've seen to date. The day was perfect with temps in the 60's and NO wind! | |

| Six2 | Nice slow hike Date Climbed: Nov 12, 2007 | |
| My wife and I took our time up the mountain on a beautiful day. Views from the top can't be beat in Texas. It's amazing how far away you can spot the peak from the east, it's easy to see how it became such a landmark. | |
