The 3-2-1 Challenge is a community favorite, that contains one of the six peaks for the SoCal Six Pack of Peaks Challenge. You must complete 3 peaks (Mt. Pinos, Sawmill and Grouse Mountain), in 2 counties (Kern and Ventura Counties), in 1 day. Of course for the SoCal Six Pack of Peaks Challenge you just need to complete the one, Sawmill. But why not make a day out of it and bag some other peaks in the Los Padres National Forest. The best time to visit this trail is from Spring to Fall, during the Winter months it’s a popular area for snowshoeing, but do your research before your adventure, the weather is always subject to change.
