| asaking11 | Raven's Ridge  Date Climbed: Oct 17, 2009 | |
| Hiked up to Lake Peak, beautiful views, and then hiked over to Penitente Peak. I did this whole hike car-to-car in 4.5 hours, and I thought I was doing way awesome until I saw a couple of guys running up the trail. I went back the same way down Raven's Ridge. | |

| Yep this one too. A big, broad meadow, but nice anyway. | |

| StumblingBear | A Trip End Point Date Climbed: Jul 22, 1992 | |
| Another peak we often ate lunch on during llama trips into the Pecos Wilderness. We would leave from a camp at Puerto Nambe and make Penitente Peak our end point, never did go on over to Lake Peak. | |

| MoapaPk | part of loop Date Climbed: Jul 5, 1983 | |
| Date a guess. The loop from the ski area, over Lake Peak and Down Penitente, down Windsor trail, was a popular day hike. | |

| Decided to chance the ridge to Penitente Peak with dark clouds looming. 20 minutes later we were on the top and the clouds moved east. Fantastic views! | |

| Great loop! The aspens in Nambe drainage were looking very good, they'll be at their peak soon. | |

| I chose to make a run for the summit from Lake Peak when I discovered it was only 8:30 am and it would be a while before any storms could form. I made it over in 14 minutes and my legs nearly gave out while within 200 feet of the summit. | |

| Midlife Mountaineer | Route Climbed: Raven's Ridge, Lake Peak, returned via Tesuque Peak Date Climbed: July 2004 | |
| This turned out to be a short hike because of the time saved by returning via Tesuque. Nice day but breezy at the top. | |

| Done as a rather long loop including Lake Peak and Penitente Peak as per the maintainer's suggestions (or challenge). See trip report for more. Lets maybe agree to call this 'The High Road' to Santa Fe Baldy' Pics | |

| goat14er | Route Climbed: Lake Peak/Windsor Trail loop Date Climbed: June 2003 | |
| A very cool loop hike to do and Penitente's broad summit makes for a nice lunch spot, provided there's no storms around. Beware the large snowfield in the saddle between it and Lake Peak which tends to linger into the summer. | |

| jasont1998 | Route Climbed: Windsor/Skyline Trail Date Climbed: September 2003 | |
| Summited this peak, along with Lake and deception, on a nasty Sunday morning. Very high winds assaulted me on the summit, making it nearly impossible to walk a straight line over the bald peaks. Beware the ridges between Penetente, Lake, and Deception Peaks, as in high winds they may be very precarious. Still, a great and challenging climb. | ||

| dsnell | Route Climbed: Lake Peak/Windsor Trail Loop Date Climbed: 2/96 | |
| Climbed in Feb. 1996 with James Harrison of Albuquerque, NM as an overnight trip. When we left the Santa Fe Ski basin parking lot, the biggest Blizzard to hit this area in a long time began raging, so we quickly lost all visibility. By the time we began the traverse along the South Ridge of Lake Peak, we could see only 10' in front of us. From the Summit of Penitente Peak we could see only a whiteout, and we ended up camping amongst the trees along the ridge below the summit. Despite all the snow, we had a great trip. The sun came out the next morning, but we had to shoe through 3' of new snow, which was kind of unnerving at times. Still, we had a blast! | |
