| cp0915 knows the awesome peaks. This was a great hike and an amazing area. I met a 70+ year old man while I was hiking, he was coming down the gully when I saw him - he had a great spirit about him and it was nice meeting him. | |

| Nice Mountain. Amazing how hot it can get in the valley even in April. The last stretch reminded me of the Northern Limestone Alps. | |

| This is an awesome loop that allows one to climb both Muddy Peak and Muddy High Point. Muddy High Point is not as impressive as Muddy Peak, but it is the highest peak in Muddy Mountains. The slideshow is here: Muddy Traverse | |

| This is about as good as it gets. Muddy is now tied with Moapa as my favorite desert peak. | |

| What a challenge. The class 3 part was fun. About 4.2 miles to the summit. The last time the summit log was signed was March 6, 2006. | |

| Actually, 3 times so far. First time, We came in from the SE, went up Lovell Wash, then eventually cut NE up to the ridgeline. From there, we went ~0.3 miles NNW to the summit. Class 3 on the NE route and part of the ridge. Unfortunately, this route now requires about 2 miles more RT. In 2003, BLM closed off the dirt roads to accommodate the new, larger wilderness area. Now the bighorn sheep will be protected from hikers, but not the people who want to blow their brains out with bullets. | |

Here is a link for some more usefull info for Muddy Peak includeing Images, GPS, Map etc. Donnie B. Met a couple of nice guys on summit who had hiked together for over 40 years. | |

| I couldn't make it all the way to the TH in my Subaru (or at least, I didn't have the courage to try), but I got pretty close... I misidentified another dirt road in the vicinity as the TH access (it petered out after 1/2 mile), and only reoriented myself when I gained the adjacent ridge en route. It's kind of a slog to reach the base of the peak, but the scrambling along the ridge and up to the summit makes it worthwhile. Quite fun. The downclimb certainly had my undivided attention--although only rated class 3, there's just enough exposure and more than enough isolation out here to make it inadvisable to fall, especially if you're out solo... had originally intended to tag the Muddy Mtns highpoint as well on a loop back, but it looked like a boring walk-up. I bailed on that plan, opting for the early return and a comfortable motel room instead. Day 3 of my southern NV/UT tour. | |

| Great double climb with the DPS! Muddy Peak and Muddy Mountains HP both. Part of my 2002 Winter Southwest Loop. I'm so grateful to the DPS for their fine lead, plus getting a ride in a member's 4WD! Good hiking needed to do both these peaks, dawn to dusk. | |
