| no partners | | The day after summiting Bob Thompson and Montezuma peaks, after camping the night at a great spot in Ash canyon (about 5,200 feet elevation), I decided to drive to Montezuma pass and summit this easy peak. There are some nice informational billboards along the way with historical info and many benches and places to rest. From the top, I could look down and see the border wall. It went behind another mountain that was still on the US side. Going to the West, the border wall seemed to end at a certain point. I didn't see any towns, houses or anything on the Mexican side. Just a lot of open desert and mountains.
Driving info: Going West from Montezuma pass, it's about 15 miles of primitive graded dirt road until you get to Parker Canyon Lake. From there, it's paved all the way to Sonoita. The drive is probably possible in a standard passenger car. Going East from Montezuma pass, I believe it's about 2.2 miles of primitive graded dirt road going up the slope and the rest is paved. |
