Is this the hardest trail in San Diego?

I haven't been in San Diego for that long but it's definately the hardest trial I've been on so far, and I'd like to think I'm a pretty seasoned hiker.

It's pretty much uphill from the moment you get out of your car. Those uphills will have you begging for some downhills, and just when you get to a downhill you realize it's a 30% grade and you start begging for an uphill. It's just stupid. Oh…and I need to mention that it's uphill on the way too! Are you kidding me!

There is practically no shade for the entirety of the trail so make sure you're covered up and bring lots of water, I brought 3L and finished it right before I got back to the car.
