This pattern is in the Knitting the National Parks Book by Nancy Bates.
We think Nancy said it best:
Aside from protecting the world’s most extensive Permian fossil reef, Guadalupe Mountains offers up canyons, forests, dunes, mountains, and incredible dark skies. From the snakes and lizards of the desert floor to the bears and elk in the mountains, the wildlife is as diverse as the terrain. A strenuous hike to the top of Guadalupe Peak (the highest point in Texas) rewards hikers with a breathtaking view – a view from the “Top of Texas”. Inspired by the patterns and rich colors of the Southwest, the bottom half of this design features stranded knitting with duplicate stitch accents. The top half features subtle vertical texture, representative of iconic El Capitan and Guadalupe Peaks.
👉 Size: One size fits an average adult-size head. (Approx. 19" - 22").
👉 Kit includes: 3 colors of Malabrigo Rios (color 1 - 105 yds, Colors 2 & 3, 52 yds each), 6 stitch markers and clear project bag with handles
👉 The Kit does not include the pattern or needles; the pattern calls for US 5 x 16"(3.75mm) for the brim, US 7 x 16" (4.5mm) for the hat body. and #7 DPN. The pattern can be found on Ravelry for $5.00.
About the yarn: We chose 5 colors in Malabrigo Rios to get the closest colors to match Nancy Bates's sample beanie. Rios is 100% superwash merino. This hat, with full skeins of yarn and notions would be $97.44.
