    A very demanding hike that is by no means "easy," however, the 360 view of the high desert and the majestic surroundings of the mountain, makes it a destination. Located on the top of the Granite Mountains; Dead Man's Peak is the highest point in Apple Valley. The most demanding part is the end because the trail ends and the last climb is vertical but if you ascend to the left side of the cliffs it is easier than going right. "I highly suggest doing this hike in winter months when the weather is cooler; less dangers." [There are two trails that intersect to form one trail the rest of the way. This creates a "loop trail" for anyone who wants to just enjoy the mountain but not going all the way to the top; it's a nice hike as well.] The two trails are found along the ridge to the right that borders the fence of the old dump. Walk the dirt road along the fence and turn right to keep on it. The first trail is right off the road to the right not to far past the start of the ridge. It is the most scenic route. The second trial is at the end of the dirt road where it circles back around. The trail is off to the right of that circle.
    Just remember, "You only have to go up once." :D Have fun, Enjoy it take your time and don't rush. It's a beautiful mountain with amazing wildlife and plant life.

    There is no trail, the whole way up is covered in loose boulders ready to crush you without warning. Rattle snakes and aggressive goats are everywhere. Would not recommend.

    Was nearly eaten by a giant Tarantula during my hike. Luckily, the U.S. air force saved me! Never again, will I venture there alone without any big weapons.
