Chicoma Mountain stands at an elevation of 11,561 feet and is an extinct supervolcano. It is the highest mountain in the Jemez Mountains range, and the trail getting to the top can be tricky to follow, so bring the appropriate navigation tools. Sometimes at the summit, near the geological survey marker, there is a rock cairn. The cairn is where Pueblo people leave traditional offerings, so respectfully do not move any objects resting at the top of the mountain.
