A wide gently graded trail starts just opposite the entrance to Paso Picacho campground. Another less used trail follows a fire road from the Los Caballos horseman's campground. 5730' Stonewall Peak is a popular rock climbing area and offers a number of good climbs on sound rock with essentially no rock fall problems. Routes vary in length and difficulty with limited selection for all tastes.
