Miranda Peak is on private land
Miranda Peak is on the Cielo Vista Ranch. You can only climb it with the ranch's permission, usually for a fee. Trespassers have been prosecuted. We don't give a full route; if the ranch lets you go, confirm the route with them.
Miranda Peak sits on the central Sangre crest north of UN 13,569. New mapping shows it is now unranked.
Route in brief: from UN 13,569, the ridge northeast to Miranda is Class 2. From Lomo Liso to the north, the last stretch below Miranda is Class 2+ over loose, stacked boulders, eased by a game trail.
In recent years (last checked by our source in 2024), the ranch has allowed climbing only Friday through Sunday, not from August 1 through December, with a fee, a signed waiver, a 6 a.m. gate time and a 6 p.m. sign-out. It has mainly allowed Culebra Peak and Red Mountain; other summits have cost more and are not always permitted. Contact the ranch well ahead and get clear permission for your exact route. Rules change with owners. Nearby 13ers on public land include Trinchera Peak, Cuatro Peak and Mount Maxwell.
