El Cajon Mountain

We wanted to do this in January to beat the heat but it still got somewhat warm from all the hard work of going up

to kick off the 2020 to 6 pack of Peaks San Diego Challenge, my usual hiking buddy and I sat out for El Cajon mountain

It was cloudy and initially cool outside. As we arrived to the peak the cloud coverage dissipated. There was quite a bit of traffic up

El cajon mountain At the beginning of the year I said to my self we will get the hardest hikes out of the way first

Some sections are very steep. It has inclines both ways.

Decided to start the San Diego Six Pack of Peaks Challenge early and finish fast! We began this journey at 0001 on Saturday, January 1,
