Mount Wilson!

I originally wanted to hike the Mount Wilson trail, but it’s closed due to wildfire damage. The route from Chantry Flat was okay, but vegetation encroached on the trail for long sections so definitely wear pants and a long sleeve shirt for this route! Also watch for bugs when you’re at lower elevation. As for the route itself it wasn’t too bad in terms of elevation gain or difficulty. Once you reach the top you can hang out at the observatory and eat from a food truck or cafe. The view of both the surrounding mountains and the L.A. suburbs were phenomenal at the top!
