Was perfect weather for a hike not to cold or not to hot. Distance 3.72 elevation gain 2,744ft time 1h 33m to the top.
First mile was pretty easy. About 1 mile in the trail gets really narrow. The last mile or so to the peak you start some…
Great hike today; my first of the Six Pack. The first 2/3ds of the hike were moderate, then the final third was a stairmaster to…
The first 4 miles of the hike to the peak were decent – the last 1/2 mile is a butt kicker. It is very steep…
Gorgeous day for a gorgeous trail! Incredible views, met so many awesome hikers and PCTers.
This 8 miles round trip hike was along the PCT. Although we have done this hike a few times before, yesterday was the first time…
Started about 7:30. About three spots near the top where either spikes or switchback cutting may be necessary
Pretty chill hike, not too much elevation gain. The only tough thing was breathing at a high altitude!
Wonderful trip! We went early, and the first portion was shaded. There were a couple of forks in the trail that weren’t marked, so we…

Trail was relatively easy to follow. There was snow covering the trail in spots. I tried to stay on the original trail however several switchbacks…

Video of the hike. Hike to San Jacinto peak via the Palm Springs Tramway. Weather down in Palm Springs in the high 80’s. Weather on…

My sixth on this relatively easy SPOP. I’ll take it as the views were awesome and the company of Slothy SoCal Hikers was even better.…
