San G and bailed on 9 Peaks Challenge
Started at the crack of dawn for what I hoped would be a summit of San Gorgonio and the rest of the 9 peaks challenge to San Bernadino peak. Felt good on the way up but the altitude caught up at Charlton Peak, 4/9 on the 9 Peaks challenge. I decided to bail out at Dollar Lake saddle, but its still a long hike down to Forest Falls. Vivian Creek trail is a beautiful way up, Falls Creek trail back down is not fun as many miles are horribly overgrown with Manzanita and thorny bushes.
