Finally! Pinos Sawmill Grouse
Also on this hike
My first time summiting Sawmill! This one evaded me in 2025. It’s a long drive out of LA, and I ran out of time at the end of the year missing it after bagged 11/12 hikes in this challenge. So FINALLY! I bagged all of the SoCal peaks! I did not love this trail….up down up down up down three peaks…it’s a nice physical challenge but a mental mind game. Intermittent snow patches at varying melt levels and depth made for a fun obstacle.
Congratulations, Beth! The cairn on Sawmill is my favorite.
