San Gorgonio was my last summit on the list of 12. I saved it for the end so I would be in shape for it and I am glad I did. It is no joke. AllTrails had me at 19 miles and about 5500 vertical. It was well worth it though. Beautiful hike that changes scenery several times. Lots of water accessible but none after about mile 6 to the summit. I went through almost 7 liters of water, 2 bananas, 1 orange, 1 avocado. 2 PB and honey sandwiches, 1 tin of sardines, 2 kind bars, 1 RX bar, and 3 liquid IVS. Met some cool people along the way and had a great Monday.

I'm really glad I joined Social Hiker. This was my first time joining and first time for a few of these peaks. It definitely nudged me out of my comfort zone and got me on to some new trails. Overall a great investment.
