"This was a fantastic day! We started up from Blue Point Spring and followed the ridge up to Blue Point. From there, we traversed all the way to Bighorn Peak. The views were tremendous all the way across the ridge. The hike was a little tougher than we were ready for, but we made it.The only thing that sucked was the icy morning wind." — Kevin • Feb 26, 2022

"3.21.2020~Blue Point, North Fires 5 peak Ridge Traverse, Muddy Mtns, 11.5 mile sustained out and back Ridge surf, 4,500’ gain, 7:26hrs w/Jimmy. Blue Point, 3,235’, North Fire Peak~East Summit, North Fire Peak & Bighorn Peak. This route was suggested to me by Crystal. I appreciate her generosity, sharing this route with me. She is one of the top female solo Mountaineers in our area and I greatly admire her. This route had some of the most spectacular 360 views of The Valley of Fire/Virgin Mtns, Morman Mtns/Overton Arm of Lake Mead/White Basin/Gold Butte along the entire way! It was unique to see Jumbo Peak and others in Gold Butte, with snow. Today was a sufferfest and quad massacre of epic proportions but I wouldn’t have it any other way. There was some thrilling class 3+ up and down-climb on one of the lumps too and Jimmy handled it well. Adam and Frances were also out there doing a big loop and we were lucky enough with timing to intersect them on North Fire Peak (with appropriate social distance). It was nice to see them again. After the trek we drove to Echo Bay and sat in the cold water to ice our body. Perfect day. Felt good to forget about reality and feed the spirit and sou..." — paula.raimondi • Mar 21, 2020

"Hiked up to a point just below this one on Saturday afternoon & camped. Made the quick trip up to peak after I set up camp. This was my first backpack since the back injury, so I was a little nervous. Everything went great! Was a little windy & very chilly up there. This was a long time goal to see sunrise from here. Did some watercolor sketches too. Will do this again for sure. This was a wonderful trip! Oh, saw 3 rogue, escapee cows in Valley of Fire on the hike out Sunday! I'm guessing they made a break from a ranch in Overton?" — StudioHoodoo • Jan 26, 2019
