This was my 8th peak and 9th overall summit for the six pack of peaks challenge. When I signed up for this challenge in December 2024, I had no idea how I would do 6 of these peaks, and I never imagined Gorgonio would even be possible. I was out of shape with high cholesterol. Little did I know then my consistent training would not only make this possible, but fun. I am fatigued, and it was hard, but my body was ready for this one. I still don’t believe it. And I FRIGGIN DID IT.

Logistics if you’re going soon: The river was dry. Very little water available on the trail. We brought 4 liters plus an electrolyte drink each and probably should have packed 5 liters each. Well maintained trail and easy to follow.

We started at 4:07 am and ended around 4:40 pm with about 50 minutes enjoying the peak.
