"Fun hike . Easy. Pretty straightforward just make sure to bang a hard left once you are staring smack dab at mummy’s toe or else you’ll be going to raintree . Couple good spots to make a small little beginner backpacking trip out of this" — joshortman • Sep 26, 2022

"I did not grab the correct layers for this hike but it was fun to summit on a cloudy day and I had it mostly to myself! The wild flowers were beautiful and it was one of the first bigger hikes back after my surgery. Happy for a successful summit!" — CheshireKatt13 • Jun 22, 2022
"6.6.22~Fletcher Peak (10,286’) via Hummingbird Hollow, Mt Charleston NV. One of my fav mountaineer routes off the beaten path. 4.5 miles, 2,600’ gain in 3hrs. 1:49 to the summit, :19 min on the summit, down in :52min. Felt good to get off the grid and back into the Mtns. I was so happy to be on a summit that I did several cartwheels on sharp rocks without noticing the pain. It was warm with a 3pm start but the cloud cover kept it tolerable. I sweat a lot. I saw snow, a heart shaped fossil, wildflowers & heard the resident hummingbirds (the canyon is named after) frolicking. Yay Mtns. " — paula.raimondi • Jun 6, 2022
"Winter ascent from the North Loop. Post-holing wasn't a significant issue, but microspikes were useful. Beautiful windless day and relatively warm. Just under five hours round trip." — daviddeang • Jan 24, 2022
"Jumping for Joy at 11,529’ above the sea! 9.3.2021~Mummy Mtn, Mannequin, Cockscomb & Fletcher, Spring Mountains, NV. 11.5 mile, 5,300’ gain, 6:41 hr CCW loop with a visit to Raintree (a 3000+ year old Bristlecone Pine) & Mummy Springs. I started up from Deer Creek Picnic area for the most direct East route to Mummy, climbing 3,200’ to the summit in 2:05 hrs. I hurled myself swiftly down the west side scree slope for an up and over extravaganza. I headed to Cockscomb Peak for my 1st go at the hardest ascent route to that peak. It was scary exposed ledges with loose rock and a class 3 climb on solid rock to avoid them. The return route was confusing, dangerous & creepy. The rest of the day was scampering trails to Fletcher, Raintree & Mummy Springs. I blazed down steep slopes to the finish. I consumed 90 oz’s of water, 200 cals of powder in my bottle, 3 double stuffed oreos, 3 cracker & a homemade gluten free meatball sammie. The temps are chilly now & the beginning stage of the aspens changing colors was lovely. I felt strong and free and made quick work of this activity. My Altra Timps served me well today." — paula.raimondi • Sep 3, 2021
"Ritch and I hiked up Hummingbird Hollow to Fletcher Peak, where we met up with Amber and Richard. From there, we hiked the Fletcher Peak Trail back to North Loop Trail, where we met up with Corey, Paul and their dogs Wile E & Lincoln. We hiked up to Bristlecone Peak, then descended Wild Horse Canyon. We got a ride back to the HH Trailhead. Nice temps, but a bit windy." — Kevin • Aug 21, 2021
"Hiked up Hummingbird Hollow to Fletcher Peak today. Started super early to avoid the heat; got a few sprinkles. This route was much easier to follow than the last time I did it several years ago. Still very beautiful.

"There is still snow along the trail, but not enough to use snowshoes or crampons. Microspikes and poles are helpful. We headed up to Bristlecone Peak first, then over to Fletcher. We took a more direct route back, straight down a snow slope for a bit more fun. " — Kevin • Mar 7, 2021
"9.4.2020~I showed Jimmy a secret, challenging and enchanting route to Fletcher Peak via Hummingbird Hollow. It’s my new fav mountain indulgence. A 4 pm start was perfect for shade and relief from the heat. No sun block required....8 miles, 3,000’ gain, 3:14hrs. It’s a great Mountaineering, Trail Running and Road Running Loop route off the beaten path. We had an awesome time after, watching the moon rise, gazing at the stars and feeling the Breezes....One of the best dates we have ever had.
