Peak b/bradypump (Picacho Mountains)
December 9, 2025


Peak 2409 from the raised berm road, from where I parked


Now seen while walking in green desert


Now closing in on it


One final track and it's right there


Approaching the ascent gully


It was rocks like this all the way up


At the saddle, looking up at the peak


At a higher saddle now


So close I can smell it


Summit rocks. I felt the one to the left was highest


View west from where I came, the CAP Canal can be seen


South, Newman Peak


North: more peaks


Now heading down that gully
