I did my comeback hike to San Giorgino Peak with 3H Hiking Group and 213 FB Hikers.  Four weeks prior, I attempted a backpacking hike up to San Giorgino Peak with the Mountain Humpers.  Unfortunately, I did not summit wirh the group due to severe cramping.  I stayed behind at Dry Lake View Campsite while the others successfully bagged the Peak.

Now, here I am at the San Giorgino Wilderness hoping that I can meet Old Greyback at the top.  I was so surprise when I came back.  The wildflowers were in full bloom.  The whole trail have a lavender scent.  The current from the creek were very strong.  I wised up this time.  I brought 3 liters of water this time.  I know there are many water resources I can filter my water supply.   The weather was perfect.  I did not experience and elevation sickness.  I successfully peaked San Giorgino Peak this time around.  There are patches of xnpw/ ice.  I took safe precaution as I hiked down.  Our group decided to take the loop via Mineshaft Trail.  We came to a halt when we saw that the whole trail was covered in snow.  The group decided to hike up the Mountain and avoid the snow.  We safely hiked our way down.
