Congratulations to San Diego Six-Pack of Peaks Challenger Daniel for his summit of El Cajon Mountain. This peak gets hot in the summer, and in fact the trail shuts down for the month of August. So get out there and get hiking!

Wonderful Woodson! San Diego Six-Pack of Peaks Challenger Eric tackled the often-crowded Woodson Mountain at sunrise and got some great photos of the inversion layer.

Have you taken a sunrise hike?

Cuyamaca Peak via Azalea Galen Loop - Kudos to San Diego Six-Pack of Peaks Challenger Hamza for finding a trail you can still hike even when the national forests are closed. In fact, many of the hikes in the challenge are still open!

Roller coaster! That's an apt description for the route up El Cajon Mountain. In fact, the trail is closed during the month of August due to the heat. Tips for success? Like challenger Marilyn, pick a cooler day, and start early.

Potato Chip (aka Woodson Mountain aka Mount Woodson) is an awesome hike. The photo on the cantilevered rock is optional, and often requires a long wait in line. Kudos to challenger Kimberly for summiting AND sticking around for the IG shot.

The highest mountain in San Diego County is Hot Springs Mountain on the Los Coyotes Reservation. This is a great time of year to hike it.
