We got to the top in our fastest time that we'd ever done for this peak. We turned on the afterburners up to about a half to 3/4 mile from the top and then slowed down so we didn't gas out before the summit lol. Still made record time and had a great lunch at the top. Met some great people, talked to a bad mofo of a ranger who carried a new 80lb sign to the peak, and met a marine that hike from the desert floor (cactus to clouds) to the peak in 6 HOURS!!!!!! Needless to say it was a great day. This is honestly the most beautiful hike in socal. Went a bit slow on the downhill because of my knee but still got down well before dark, which is plus!

  1. Very cool! So you were one of the first to snap a pic with the new summit sign on San Jacinto?!
