Guadalupe Peak

Spectacular views from Guadalupe Peak, with a summit of 8,749 feet - the highest peak in Texas. The two RV Gypsies hiked this strenuous 8.4 mile round trip trail.
The trip up was difficult and strenuous, and the trip down killed our knees. Especially since Karen did not wear her knee brace and they did not have hiking sticks. Oh My God! Our aching knees.
 
A few motion pictures were also taken that will really show the wild conditions on this hike. They will be posted soon.

The crazy RV Gypsies begin their insane hike
the beginning of the hike
Lee is smiling now - at the beginning of the hike -
will be still smile at the end of the hike?
No Lee, you cannot hide and must hike some more. See the car in the middle of the photo? That is where the hike began and this isn't even the half-way point
The trail goes on and on - it is called a switch-back because the trail switches back and forth over itself (it zig-zags all the way up the mountain peak).

Look hard & you will see the top of our orange HHR car.

Lee wonders when the rock will fall.
The two RV Gypsies are still smiling as they take a brief rest.
The trail often borders a very steep drop down, as you can really in these photos.
