Potato Chip Rock via Mt. Woodson Trail

There are multiple trailhead that eventually lead you to Mt. Woodson summit, but we chose the Lake Poway to Mt. Woodson trail and boy, it was a workout! Due to the popularity of this hike, I wasn’t expecting it to be at this level of difficulty. It is definitely a very scenic hike, but I think what made it hard was we started at 3pm while the sun was kinda scorching. It took us a little over 4 hours to cover the 7.2 miles (with about 2100 ft of elevation gain) but I think we lost a lot of time just because we kept stopping to hydrate. The potato chip rock is pretty cool looking! I will say that it looks better in pictures than it does in person so that’s that.
