I did this hike by my self. I like the folliage changing color. Here in LA, we don't see it as much as in other places. There weren't many people on the trail and that was nice. There were a couple of people with loud speakers and that was a bit annoying, so I hiked as fast as I could so I could stop hearing their music.

There were 3 different types of birds making their calls and I rather listen to that.

I did notice more trash on this trail. I came back with quite a bit.

But over all, I think so far is the easier of all. The elevation is my biggest challenge.

It was a beautiful sunny, cool day.

The views of the blanket of clouds over the Inland Empire made the other peaks look like islands in the sky. Very impressive look!
