Hunter Peak is an 8,376-foot-elevation (2,553-meter) summit in Culberson County, Texas, United States.
It ranks as the fifth-highest peak in the Guadalupe Mountains and sixth-highest in the state of Texas.
[5] Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 2,500 feet (762 m) above Pine Spring Canyon in one mile (1.6 km).
[6] The mountain's toponym was officially adopted in 1966 by the United States Board on Geographic Names to remember Jessie Coleman "J.C." Hunter (1890–1945), an early proponent of the park and major landowner of what became the park.
[4] Based on the Köppen climate classification, Hunter Peak is located in a cold semi-arid climate zone with relatively hot summers, calm, mild autumn weather, and cool to cold weather in winter and early spring.
