Ascent of Emory Peak on 2009-04-13| Others in Party: | GTDC&P | | Date: | Monday, April 13, 2009 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | Emory Peak | | Location: | USA-Texas | | Elevation: | 7825 ft / 2385 m |
Ascent Trip ReportBeautiful hike up from the Chisos Basin completed by an exposed scramble to the summit. Transiently felt like an irresponsible parent letting my 6 year old (plus other 3 children) climb up with me but he was fine - it was only me who felt very nervous. Very windy on top but fortunately plenty of satellite / radio equipment to hang on to while taking photos of the outstanding views.
