Hasn't voted | One reason I add mountains is so people can add there pictures, so please do add them! I have other pics I'd like to post, but they are not developed yet. I will post them as soon as I can which unfortunatly will not be for quite a while. | |

Voted 10/10 | Nice page on a cool-looking peak (actually a very impressive looking peak!). From the base it looks like it can only be done with ropes We were driving by it 2 days ago and I was wondering the same thing - is there a non-technical route up it? | |

Voted 10/10 | Three years ago, while driving through AZ during the long trek from Florida to my new home in Vegas, I eye-balled an unbelievably aesthetic peak. It took me until today to realize what that peak was! I'm dying to get back down there and climb that thing! | |

| peakbagger | Picacho Butte | |
Hasn't voted | Just wanted to let you know that there's a stunning albeit uneventful Picacho Butte in northern Az. right off I-40. It stands about 2000ft. above the surrounding area, looking pretty burly. Not the case, however. cruised it in 45 minutes. Good view though and lots of lion scat. | |

| Greenhouseguy | No Cables Needed | |
Hasn't voted | I've summited Picacho Peak six times now. On my sixth ascent, I decided to make it more interesting by not using the cables or the plank. I had to crabwalk a little bit on the long sloping rock down the backside, but I was able to find handholds and footholds to get around every cabled section. On the steepest part, I went outside the cables to the right on the way up. There is one good foothold chiseled in the sloping rock above the plank that traverses the small cliff; a shorter person may not be able to stretch far enough to reach all of the holds. I made it up and down without using any cable or plank. It added a whole new dimension to an otherwise easy climb. My Class 3 skills are fairly limited, so a more experienced climber might not have much trouble climbing Picacho Peak without the cables. | |
