Mile High Mountain [CLOSED]

It will take 10 hours, but you will gain over 5000 feet of elevation if you do the hike correctly. Due to the long route, it's difficult to hike. You're rewarded with stunning views if you get high enough up. The west wall of Palo Verde Canyon is the most direct route up the mountain. After walking for more than a mile towards the canyon opening try to walk another 1.5 miles up the canyon to reach a trail up the ridge-line. It is a sharp bend before 1,900 ft.
