black mesa trail印象

What a great well marked trail that wasn't too challenging for my family to hike! 8.4 miles most of which was easy pasture type walking. Only about 2 miles of the switchback trail was rocky and a climb up and down. I was able to this safely carting my year old son on my back!

Easy-to-find trailhead with bathroom, 4.2 smooth miles to the highest point in Oklahoma. About 700 feet elevation gain. A very pleasant 3 mile hike.

4.2 miles one way, fairly easy except for 1/4 mile stretch up the side of the mesa. Outstanding vistas, beautiful wildflowers, wildlife, and photo opportunities galore. Dress for the weather and use sunscreen. This is a very isolated area.

I hiked the Black Mesa Trail in mid-February 2013. It is a well marked trail that provides a great workout while in a wonderful rugged setting. Just make sure you dress appropriately for the time of the year. It can be very windy up on the Mesa.

It was fun to climb the mesa. But the first couple of miles of the trail sort of dragged on a bit, without much change of scenery. Of course, that's sort of the point, I guess. The landscape just stretches on and on like that for -- many miles. You definitely get a sense of how vast and isolated and unpopulated it is out there in the Oklahoma panhandle. There are thousands of acres of nothing except scrubby brush and alien-looking mesas. And it is SO QUIET! Awesomely and eerily QUIET.

This was a great hike both up and down. Used just short of 2 hours up. The scenery was amazing when i reached the top! Recommended!

Want a hike that's challenging but not too difficult and with the most amazing view? Go for it!!! What was fun is at the top there was a container that had notebooks where fellow hikers shared their thoughts.

First of all the trail is a 4.2 mile hike to get there and 4.2 easier back. So 8.4 miles of fun and at least 2-3 hours walking. Besides that, it was a great dessert trail, marked well and safe parking. Most of it can be walked with a short amount going up hill. There were amazing views, some of the best in Oklahoma and I even saw a herd of Elk run a block in front of me. If you like nature, this is the place to be. Make sure you have plenty of light as grounds close at dusk and you can't see anything anyway...I tried. The Mesa could be dangerous with just a phone light. Take lots of water and regular shoes are okay. The summit is not that great, but kind of cool to know you are at highest OK point. Bring something fun to leave in the small tool box and mark your name down as a summitor. It is about 35 miles west and then North of Boise City and all paved road (Not like KS). PS don't leave going north to CO on the dirt roads. You can go 3-4 miles north to Three-point OK/NM/KS marker. Just continue West, then north from summit parking.
