For the second year in a row, I completed all 12 peaks!  This was only my second time doing San Gorgonio and my first as a day hike.  We started at 6:30 so knew we would be doing the last part in the dark.  Total hike took about 11 hours–6-1/2 on the way up and 4-1/2 on the way down.  We had absolutely perfect weather and no wind.  It was glorious.  And we only encountered 3 other hikers.  We had the summit to ourselves except for one cute but pesky chipmunk.  The last couple miles are as hard as I remembered with the altitude, but I did it!  Step by step with lots of rest stops.  Trail was in great condition as of yesterday and plenty of water flowing al the way up to high camp.  Snowing up there today.
