A photo story

Guadalupe Peak, Texas

Laura and I made it to the summit monument on Guadalupe Peak, the highest point in Texas, in March 2024. It was a cool, partly cloudy midday, around 46, with a breeze around 11 miles an hour. A few days earlier we had been at White Sands, about a four and a half hour drive west.

The monument is a steel pyramid at 8,751 feet, with a long look over the desert and the rest of the Guadalupe Mountains. We stood there together and I took the photo.
