Summary
Tackle the Lake Peak-Penitente Loop in New Mexico’s Pecos Wilderness for a punishing but breathtaking climb—over 3,000 feet of elevation gain, past Deception Peak, and up to 12,400-foot Lake Peak and 12,260-foot Penitente Peak. Reward? Unobstructed views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and, on July 4, 2019, even a surprise encounter with majestic Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep. Just remember: summit before noon—monsoon storms hit fast, and you don’t want to be caught exposed. The Skyline Trail loops back down, reconnecting with the Winsor Trail, offering wild beauty and maybe a wildlife sighting if you’re lucky.
