A:
I've hiked both and really like Pinnacle Peak. It's a strenuous hike and not for everyone, but the terrain is very navigable and the views are lovely. McDowell is nice but very different - …
I've hiked both and really like Pinnacle Peak. It's a strenuous hike and not for everyone, but the terrain is very navigable and the views are lovely. McDowell is nice but very different - less strenuous and so if an easier hike is preferred this might be for you.
