"Quite a challenging PITA to get to 2867, which is 160 feet lower than my house! Nothing need be worse than class 2+ on this route, but invariably it will, because lots of drops are hidden till the last moment. I never had to backtrack more than 50 feet to find a safer way. The biggest danger is the rotten rock. I had a seemingly great hold break off, and had to push out to land on my feet after a fall of 4 feet (made me more cautious). The route back from 2867 is a bit like walking on Flintstone marbles, and my feet slipped out several times." — hwstock • Dec 3, 2023
"Travel was quick and smooth through the wash and up to the saddle between Pinto and peak 2867. Looked for a route up to peak 2867 but the terrain was too steep and crumbly for my comfort level. After scouting a few potential routes I decided to abandon this peak and head north towards Pinto West. The ascent to the peak was pretty routine with the rock turning from the loose crumble to tighter packed boulders.From the peak I could now see a more viable route to peak 2867 and will probably return for another attempt.
I descended the north ridge with relative ease and funneled right into the alluvial fan south of Hamblin Butte and soon made it back to trailhead.
Views were spectacular and weather was perfect, much more to see in this area and I think there is as dirt road that runs just to the west of this range that may provide alternate route possibilities for deeper peaks." — Antichris277 • Dec 8, 2022
"This is my favorite peak in the west end of the Pinto Valley Wilderness. This was my 6th time up there. I went up the canyon & came down the ridge. The canyon is so pretty, the ridge is faster & easier & has great views. I definitely recommend going up one & down the other. Saw a herd of sheep on way up. Sat up top & sketched. It's still a bit warm! " — StudioHoodoo • Nov 6, 2022
"Big Mountains! Happy 1st Monday of 2022! 1.3.2022~Solo, Peak 2,867’, Its West peak 2,830’ & Pinto West (again), 7 miles, 2,500’ gain in 4:45hrs. I had so much fun Yesterday I came back and went deeper into the area and bagged 2 more peaks that only a few party’s have ever gone to. Probably because they don’t have the required prominence but I found them more rugged & challenging than the main peaks nearby. I used Adam Walker’s Track and made a loop back to the peak I did yesterday. This route was a proper sufferfest and kicked my happy cactus covered ass! (Long story) The rock is rotten and layered with marbles. The ridge was harsh, convoluted and hard to follow. I crawled through a small rock window to avoid some exposure and unknowingly butt scooted right through a cactus. Ouch! I saw a grazing herd of bighorn. The weather was amazing. This route caused me to actually stop and eat my sandwich. I never need to do that and can usually starve my way through all my adventures.

"1.2.2022~Goodbye 2021…Hello 2022. Welcoming a New Year with a New (to me) rarely visited Peak, Pinto West, LMNRA NV. 5 miles, 1,500’ gain, 2:58hrs. The views were obscenely divine as usual. A mere :30 min from my front door I can immerse myself in a remote paradise filled with solitude. I reflected on what. I’ve done, what lies ahead, all while enjoy the present moment. Happy New Year Y’all. May it be filled with good health, a lot of love, and your favorite adventures." — paula.raimondi • Jan 2, 2022
"I was looking to do something to soothe my soul & this peak is my favorite in the west end of the Pinto Valley Wilderness. I enjoy the hike immensely. I believe the few people who have climbed it have gone up one of the ridges, but I go up the north canyon. This was my 4th time. It is so pretty & delightful, with lots of neat formations. Just be careful of the loose rock. The weather was gorgeous & I saw a ram & ewe up there. Just what I needed..." — StudioHoodoo • Jan 5, 2020
"We parked just off of Northshore Road, at the Callville Wash South turnoff, then hiked down the dirt road a ways before going over a hill and down into a wash that took us to the base of the NW Ridge. We gained the ridge and followed it to the summit. The weather was wet and windy, but we decided to press on towards Peak 2867. We descended the steep south ridge of Pinto West, then ascended the north ridge of 2867. The weather was getting worse, so we bailed on our plans to bag a couple more & decided to just head down. We came down the steep NW face, which was tedious. From there, we followed the wash back out to Callville Wash South and followed that back to the car. Had a nice rainbow on the hike out." — Kevin • Jan 14, 2017
