The hike is pretty straightforward, you go up, and then you come down. The first half of the climb is in the trees, and then the final mile or so is completely exposed.

Humphreys Peak is usually covered in snow in the winter and spring. When it’s covered in snow it’s not a ’normal’ hike and requires experience hiking in the mountains during the winter.
