Hiking
Standing tall at 9.361 ft (2.853 m) Monte Vista Peak is one of the tallest peaks in the Chiricahua Mountains. What's unique about this peak in particular is that there's a historic log cabin and Fire Lookout Tower at the top. The Fire Lookout Tower specifically will increase the beauty of the views from the summit but, don't worry if you don't feel like climbing the tower. You can still enjoy magnificent views without going up there.
