An absolute favorite hike of mine. The Ice House trail is such a nice trail especially with the fall colors and the river that you get to walk next time. The switch backs can be tough but once you get to Saddle Back you are almost there. This time we headed to Cucamonga Peak and when we finally made it to the peak it did not disappoint! On the way back we stopped to cool off in the cold river even though it was incredibly cold.  We were more conditioned for this hike and that really helped us out. Highly recommend this hike to everyone but make sure you get to the parking lot early and have an adventure pass, they will ticket you $5.  Have fun!
