Holes that qualify as âdeep-hole drilling are three or more drill bit diameters. deep. When drilling this deep, the speed and feed rate must be adjusted to. reduce friction. Friction creates heat, and heat build-up in the drill bit can cause. failure and breakage. Lubricants help dissipate heat from the tip of the drill bit, prolonging drill life, and should always be used when deep-hole drilling.
Humphry's Peak (not to be confused with Mt Humphrey's in the Sierra) in the Coconino National Forest, is the tallest summit in all of Arizona. It is part of the San Francisco Peaks, a volcanic mountain range 9 miles north of Flagstaff, Arizona.
At 12,633 feet, Humphreys Peak defies the typical Arizona stereotype that the state is mostly a warm desert region. From the depths of the nearby Grand Canyon to the often snowy and windy summit ridge, this region is one of the most diverse in the nation.
