Big Horns on Little Horn by Jim ![]() The hike is all off-trail but very easy to find. It is pretty much a cross country trek up a wash, gaining a basalt slope, and then an easy walk across a rocky ridge to the summit. This is a pretty nice mountain, as it isn't covered in cholla, and the rock is neither steep nor unstable. I chose a route that minimized elevation loss, but your route will vary and could include more AEG. Return how you came, or descend a different slope to explore on your way back.
I saw a bighorn ram when I was almost near the summit, and I can see desert wildlife being common out here. The views are nice, too. The summit is nothing special, just a high point on the ridge in the volcanic rock region of western Arizona south of I 10. Check out the Official Route and Triplogs.
