Emory Peak, Summit in Big Bend National Park, Texas, US.

Emory Peak is the highest summit of the Chisos Mountains and of Brewster County, in Big Bend National Park, Texas. Its elevation is 2,385 meters (with other sources giving 2,376 or 2,388 meters). From the Chisos Basin the peak looks like a minor ridge, while from the west it stands as a point slightly higher than the rest of the range.

Emory Peak is named for William Hemsley Emory (1811–1887), chief surveyor of the U.S. Boundary Survey team of 1852. That expedition mapped the border between the United States and Mexico under the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, and the peak carries his name from that work.

The peak carries the name of William Hemsley Emory, chief surveyor of the U.S. Boundary Survey of 1852. Hikers today pass signs warning of mountain lions and bears, and in the right season ladybugs gather on the summit. The summit also holds solar panels, radio transmission equipment and antennas.

The round trip from the Chisos Basin trailhead covers about 17 km: 5.6 km up the Pinnacles Trail, then 2.4 km on the Emory Peak Trail. The final 7 metres require a short, steep rock scramble; no gear is needed, but take care. Signs warn of mountain lions and bears.

From certain western viewpoints, the peak appears as a subtle elevation above surrounding mountains, contrasting with Casa Grande's more dominant profile.
