Santiago Peak

14 Mile round trip.  This was a very difficult hike.  Weather was great with plenty of shade on the way up.  Sunny on the way

Can't say I was a fan of the bumpy ride to get to the start.  This hike was nothing to write home about but did

Modjeska Peak and Santiago Peak. We were the ONLY hikers on this entire 14 mile trail. Santiago is the highest peak in Orange County and

The road took longer than the hike.  Added Modesto Peak.  10.6 miles all in.  Beautiful summit views of all major peaks in southern california.
