Mount Wilson is a beautiful hike and the reason I love it is that it is close, very lush and green,  and a short and sweet little day trip.  We headed up to the summit via Winter Creek Trail then down Sturtevant Trail to Chantry Flats.  Will definitely hike this again but the rocks on the way down were relentless for a couple of miles and I think going up in the opposite direction would be much easier.  This would also avoid the long walk up the road back to the lot.  Can’t wait to return. For this one parking is definitely limited because it is so popular so getting a very early start is key.
