"Marvelous hike, even though it was arduous for the last 3/4 mile due to 4-5 inches of snow on the trail and slope. Pleased to have accomplished this on what would have been my father's 96th birthday. " — rick-brown • Jan 28, 2022

"Hiked the Piedra Lisa Trail to the intersection of it and the Rincon Spur Trail and visited several summits/overlooks/reaching an elevation of 8,230 feet. Unfortunately, due to the grueling climb and daylight concerns we weren't able to to complete the trip to Piedra Lisa Peak. " — rick-brown • Dec 14, 2021

"We started by hiking the up Pedra Lisa trail for about 2 miles until it hits the Rincon Spur Trail. We then followed an unnamed trail west towards the peak. The trail is pretty hard to follow but there are several cairns along the way. The climb up to the peak is relatively steep and requires some scrambling to get the last couple hundred feet. It is confusing exactly what the proper name for this peak is. I’ve heard it called the Pedra Lisa Peak, Rincon Peak, and Peak 8304. Either way the view from the top is phenomenal and pictures don’t even come close." — jgitz • Oct 13, 2019

"Parking for Piedra Peak, elevation 8300, is located at the north end of Albuquerque, at the end of highway 333D, near the Juan Tabo picnic grounds. There is a parking area specifically for the trail. I started hiking at 6:50 AM, June 22, 2017. The starting elevation was 6945 feet. It was a clear morning with a temperature of 79 degrees. The start of the hike was somewhat confusing. It says there is a trail detour then points to the road east of the sign. I proceeded down the road. I did not look far enough to the east, on the other side of the road, and missed the starting trail. The start is somewhat hard to see in the bushes and small trees. At the end of the road I had to do some bushwhacking to get back to the trail. It is a very nice maintained trail all the way to the ridge. The hike is through a beautiful small forest with pinion pine, scrub oak, cedar and a few mixed ponderosa pines. The views on the entire hike are very nice of Albuquerque, the Rio Grande Valley and the surrounding mountains. Once you reach the ridge and head towards the west the trail gets harder to find. At times I was able to follow a fairly nice trail, then it would disappear. There are several rock cl..." — Phil-Robinson • Jun 22, 2017
