Snow Capped Mountains East of the 101

Snow Capped Mountains East of the 101

Postby mtlongisland2 » Jan 04 2011 1:20 pm

I have noticed that currently there are quite a few snow capped mountains off to the east of the 101,

4peaks obviously stands covered in snow, but off to what seems the north east of 4peaks there is another peak that is largly covered in snow as well. It looks pretty big and looks to have alot of snow on it. Does anyone know what mountain this could be? i want to hike it

thanks

Yes
It's what I call the easiest 4k in Arizona. Though it would probably be anything but easy if you're not into the 15mile 4k stuff. Preston has a great description with good history to boot here
