Mount Sedgwick

The highest peak in the Zuni Mountains, Mount Sedgwick sits at 9,256 feet. A great feature of this Cibola National Forest trail is that you can drive your 4WD vehicle all the way to the top! On the summit, an amazing 360-degree view awaits you in a spot where you can take a rest or picnic and enjoy the fresh air among tall ponderosa pines. East, across the valley of the Rio San Jose, sits one of New Mexico's highest peaks, Mount Taylor. Also visible in the distance to the east are the towns of Milan and Grants. To the south are the sandstone bluffs of El Malpais National Monument.
