Pete Mountain is a minor summit on a long ridge connecting Mount Hopkins, Agua Caliente Saddle, and Elephant Head. I started the hike by heading up the very steep Vault Mine Trail to the Agua Caliente Trail. At the Agua Caliente Saddle I began following a very faint trail up Pete Mountain. Lots of bushwhacking, and the trail often vanished. It was quite a challenge, and kept my mind off any OCD that I might have had otherwise that day. Summit is 7,661 feet.
