"It was a challenge as by late morning it was snowing rather heavily with winds of 50+ MPH, and 70+ at the summit. The weather conditions made for a true adventure. The new snow and drifts made route finding pretty difficult. Above the treeline, there are white wooden poles along the trail, which are helpful, but they are usually spaced too far apart. With the snowfall, I would HIGHLY recommend crampons. I had mini-spikes which worked well on the compacted snow in the early morning, but were virtually useless when several inches of new snow fell. Further, my hard shell rain jacket (Columbia) and pants were true lifesavers. They worked spectacularly to keep me dry and block the wind." — MichaelV • Dec 22, 2023
"Got a late start coming in from Nevada all night driving from Boundary Peak, NV. Got to bed at 2am and up around 7am to get started on Humphreys. Luckily it’s a pretty easy 12,000’ mountain. Not much exposure or slope angle. Great trail and the weather was great.
Was able to locate the wreckage of a B24 Bomber that crashed on the side of the mountain in 1944 during a night training run killing all 8 crew members.

"So glad to finally get this one! Kendrick has been on my personal list for a while, I'd like to get all of the Flagstaff main peaks. I was camping on the Mogollon ("muggy-on") Rim for Labor Day and knew it was a great time to get this peak. The day was gorgeous, and the wildflowers were in crazy bloom! You could smell wildflower scent with every step you took. So crazy. The fire on Kendrick was around 2000? 2001? 2000-2004 time period, I can't recall off the top of my head, so it's interesting to see two decades worth of growth and fire recovery, and to see how long the scars linger on. Trail the whole way, plenty of people on the trail with us, and just a gorgeous day. " — psychikingjes • Sep 3, 2023
"A mountain a world apart from the rest of Arizona. Took the standard summit trail up, in continuous snow for about one mile, before breaking out of the snow at the saddle for an easy hike to the top. Overall rating 8/10, a great state highpoint if you have a day" — MountainQuest • Jun 16, 2023
"Up Bull Basin (snow on trail - had to use spikes and climb) to the peak and back down Pumpkin Trail to Connector Trail back to Bull Basin TH. Very little snow on Pumpkin Trail. Need Gaia GPS or something similar, as trail oftentimes disappears/not clearly marked. Bull Basin not recommended for novices until the snow melts. I'm an experienced hiker and climber and would not recommend this to beginners. The main Kendrick trail is more beginner-friendly. " — rockthedr • Jun 3, 2023
