I'm perfectly content with hiking and long backpacking trips. No need for the added danger and stress of more technical mountaineering climbs.

I'm right there with you on that. I don't mind an ocassional tricky step or two to get up to a bluff with a particularly nice view, but I'm not interested in anything that requires more than general camping gear.
I've climed Emory Peak in Texas (10th highest at 7,825 feet), but not Guadalupe Peak (highest at 8,749). I know that they say it in all the marketing materials, but Big Bend is a huge park.
