drove out to guadalupe mountains national park monday morning and did this hike in the afternoon.

nice conditions for the hike and not very crowded at the park. i took my time on the ascent, taking in the scenery of these surprisingly rugged mountains. nice little assortment of flowers. before long you are dabbling in some pines with dramatic views down into pine springs canyon, then higher up views west and south (including the awesome El Capitan). had the summit all to myself and spent a good while enjoying the scenery and a snack. leisured my way down in pristine late afternoon conditions then headed off to carlsbad.

excellent day and excellent hike to the texas highpoint
