Short hike with a scrambling challenge to reach the summit. Would not suggest on a warm day as there is no shade.Left from the resort area and used the sunset loop ,the risky business loop and the slippery slope trail after that it’s off trail to finish scrambling up the rock formations, After the first scramble there is a short bridge to get to the second scramble and the peak.Careful going down as lots of loose rocks.Small cairn at the top no marker or register seen.

Superior climbing..,the hiking was medium in difficulty..,the sights were astounding..,we were surprised by a white tailed deer running past us, we saw multiple hawks, a roadrunner that dashed past us and finally we did not see the skunk, but make no mistake, he / she was there..!! As we approached the peaks at Dinosaur Mountain, we signed in with the book, then went to work. Both peaks were extremly challenging with loose rocks on the 'most traveled' climbs..,the 'paths less traveled' were worth the sweat and challenging moves..,this was an amazing day, beautiful, magestic and the views were astounding.., :y: 8) : rambo : :welcome: :app:

Watching the sunset from atop the Dinosaur. I climbed up the hump (center summit) and the rump (rear/true summit). Getting there involves a little scrambling, but nothing too technical.

I've always wondered if Dino Mountain was hikeable. Turns out, not only are there established trails there, but there's also a recently created HAZ page for it. Thanks again, Mr. AZLOT. I was feeling very unmotivated today. I think I tweaked my knee hiking Pima Canyon yesterday. This made for a nice evening stroll that I could do with limited mobility.
