Humphreys Peak is the highest in Arizona, reaching an elevation of 12,633 feet. It is located in the Coconino National Forest, near Flagstaff. The peak is a popular destination for hikers and climbers, with a well-defined trail leading to the summit. The hike to the summit is considered strenuous and is roughly 8 miles round trip with an elevation gain of over 3,000 feet. The summit offers spectacular views of the surrounding landscape, including the San Francisco Peaks, the Painted Desert, and the Grand Canyon. It is also a part of the Arizona Trail.

Humphreys via Inner Basin

Humphreys via Inner Basin is a challenging hike that takes you through the Inner Basin of the San Francisco Peaks, located in Arizona. This hike is considered more strenuous than the standard Humphreys Peak hike, as it is longer and has a more significant elevation gain. The trailhead is located at the Snowbowl Ski Resort, and the hike is approximately 9 miles round trip with an elevation of around 4,500 feet. The trail takes you through a beautiful alpine meadow with cascading streams and wildflowers in the summer. The track also offers excellent views of Humphreys Peak and the surrounding mountains. The hike is considered strenuous but offers more solitude and a different perspective of the mountain compared to the standard Humphreys Peak hike.

Mount Elden

Mount Elden is a 9,299-foot peak located in Flagstaff, Arizona. It is a popular destination for mountain bikers and hikers. It offers excellent views of the surrounding landscape, including the San Francisco Peaks, the Coconino National Forest, and Flagstaff. The peak is located within the Mount Elden Lookout Area, which is part of Coconino National Forest. Multiple trails lead to Mount Elden's summit, the most popular of which is the Elden Lookout Trail, a 3.7-mile round-trip hike with an elevation gain of 1,600 feet. It is important to note that the trails on Mount Elden are open all year, but they may be closed during the winter season due to snow. It is always suggested to check the trail conditions before planning a hike, especially during the monsoon season (July-August) when the trail may be muddy or closed due to flash flood risk.
