	Kendrick Peak - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kendrick Peak (35.4081°N, 111.8507°W) is one of the highest peaks in the San Francisco volcanic field north of the city of Flagstaff in the U.S. State of Arizona and is located on the Coconino Plateau in Coconino County.
		Kendrick Peak is between 2.7 and 1.4 million years old and consists primarily of dacite and rhyolite flows that were partly buried by andesite according to the USGS.
		In the year 2000 the Kendrick Wilderness and Kendrick Peak were involved in a large wildfire, the results of which are still quite evident to hikers or visitors to the peak.

	Mt. Gould/Mt. Humphreys/Kuna Crest
		Humphreys was one of those peaks that never appeared anywhere near my to-do list at the beginning of the summer.
		Humphreys was in almost constant view now, making it fairly straightforward to navigate through the numerous small hillocks and grassy slabs that comprise this intricate northeastern end of Humphreys Basin.
		They weren't particularly impressive peaks from this angle, little more than bumps along the ridge, and I doubt I'd ever have identified them were it not for the enormous glacier that lay to their north.

	The True Story Of Humphreys Peak, by Tom Winter
		Editor's note: Veteran ski writer Winter was inspired to relate this "True story of Humphreys Peak after participating in a discussion here on the Telemark Talk Forum.
		I could tell that he felt that out of all the lost peaks and empty ranges -the Henry's the La Sals, the Abaho - that only the looming bulk of Humphreys was the Promised Land.
		Inside the boundaries, there was perfect spring skiing on the groomers, soft slush spitting from under our edges as we cruised to a rendezvous with cold beer on the deck at the lodge.

		To the north is one of the false peaks toward Humphreys.
		This was the highest there is. Looking toward the west, the peaks at Kendrick (10,418 feet) and Bill Williams (9,256 feet) appear as smaller siblings to Humphreys.
		Though it is not permissible to hike to the peak of Agassiz (due to the endangered Senecio Franciscanus plant), it would have been novel to have hiked the tallest peak, Humphreys, and hiked within a few hundred feet of the second tallest peak, Agassiz, on the same day.

	Humphreys Peak Trail
		The first quarter mile of the Humphreys Peak Trail is about as level and easy as it gets, carrying us through upper Hart Prairie in a path parallel with the Snow Bowl chairlift and through a colorful summer meadow filled with blue lupine and alpine Iris.
		When we last hiked Mt. Humphreys two years ago in late June, we became acutely aware of why the Navajos often refer to the San Francisco Peaks as "the mountains through which the wind blows," as we struggled through gale force winds of 40-50 MPH to reach the summit.
		We have already seen the first of three false summits at the saddle, each being the highest visible peak and holding false promise of being the real Mt. Humphreys, and each being more disappointing, as the weary hiker is certain he is at last within sight of the final goal.

		The adjacent Agassiz Peak is the second highest point at 12,356, followed by neighboring Fremont (11,969) and the rest of the encircling peaks.
		The first real view is of a narrow valley between arms of Humphreys and Aggassiz, and a glance upward at the "saddle," which is actually a col, but after all this is the west.
		The saddle affords an excellent view of Agassiz, Humphreys, and the deep abyss of the inner basin, which is the remains of the once fiery caldera.

	HUMPHREYS PEAK
		Humphreys Peak, the highest mountain in Arizona, is the highest of several peaks just northwest of Flagstaff that form the rim of a giant extinct volcano.
		The weather forecast was not favorable, though, because a strong storm, which had brought torrential rain and wind to the area the day before, was predicted to cause high winds and clouds again on the day of my climb, with clouds decreasing later in the day as the storm moved away.
		The western slopes of the San Francisco Peaks lie in a favorable position to receive copious amounts of moisture from wet storm systems that roll in off the Pacific in the winter and spring.

		For the challenging highpoints I believe in climbing the peak under my own power, so driving to the top or riding the train doesn't count for me. That's just how I choose to climb, I don't expect anybody to do the same or discredit another climber's personal standards.
