At first, I thought it was easy, 2.7 miles miles of warm up, moderate elevation and easy to follow trail, once you went downhill, climbing starts, 3 sub peak before the reaching the top, narrow, steep, slippery and thorny long leaves from this wild round plants that are along the trail side by side, I slid going down and landed one of this plant, punctured not once but 4-6 times, it hurts and it bled, when I reached the peak, I knew it was Strawberry but someone ate an orange, it looks like an insult especially when someone left the peeled skin on the ground and not picking their own trash, the view from the top was gorgeous overlooking Mt. Wilson and Observatory over the clouds.  Encountered about more than 80 Lizards.
