I: Rattlesnake Peak (5826'): Join us for an adventure via a new route, an approach not possible for about half a century. In 2013, as Peter persisted in post-stroke activity to recover strength and skills, we tackled the west side of Fang.

A second and bigger discovery (it was not visible from the road below) was the best flower display we had ever seen in the San Gabriels: purple painted slopes of giant Canterbury Bells and a treasure of bright yellow poppies and various flowers and colors. This weekend’s hike may not be as fortuitous as last April, but the high spirit and exhilaration of exploring and venturing up a new route remain.

O: Ken Point (6423'): Join us for an adventure on a portion of the Pacific Crest Trail in Riverside County to a peak on the Desert Divide.

This was a "mine" in name only, and it not only never paid off but was one of the great frauds of its age, ruining many of its gullible British backers.

We’ll voyage down the wooded Vincent Gap trail to the remote wild habitat of the wide river bed created by the confluence of Vincent Gulch, Mine Gulch and Prairie Fork. Navigating to the convergence with the magnificent Fish Fork, and then past Iron Fork, rock hops and stream crossings along the way, we will enter the Narrows. Not only is this the deepest gorge in Southern California, rising 5200’ and 4000’ to the east and west, the Narrows’ rugged grandeur may make it the most beautiful and unforgettable. Our exploration will take us to the arched concrete Bridge to Nowhere, through a corridor of prospecting history, and out to Heaton Flats. Though a car shuttle makes this only about 500’ gain (4560’ loss) and 16.5 miles, this one day quest is only for the skilled experienced hiker.

Peter H Doggett 818-840-8748 [email protected] Ignacia Doggett 818-840-8748 [email protected]
I: Mayan Peak (6108’), Skinner Peak (7120’): Join us for one or both of these great hikes in the Sequoia National Forest, as we drive between trailheads. To some, mighty Mayan's profile is evocative of a Mexican ziggurat. If the resemblance isn’t convincing enough, the steep hike will have you reminiscing of climbs to Chichenitza; fortunately, the soft and quick scree descent shares no similarity to the slow and precarious descent from that pyramid. Then on to Skinner, as we follow the beautiful Pacific Crest Trail from Bird Spring Pass, the same pass discovered by John C Fremont and Kit Carson when snow blocked their entry through Walker Pass. Totals will be 3 miles 1800’ gain for Mayan; and 8 miles rt and 1800’ gain for Skinner. Please bring liquids, lugsoles, layers, lunch and hat. Contact [email protected] for trip details.

I: San Rafael Peak (6666'), San Guillermo Mtn (6606'): Some find it ironic, others find it fitting, that the first peak was named after Saint Archangel Raphael, angel of healing with province over the souls of men. Less clear is which Saint William was the namesake for the second peak, for there were several. Regardless, hiking both peaks will afford the opportunity to commune with nature and our fellow man. Join us for a hike to one peak, or to both. San Rafael will be 10.5 miles rt with 2,400' gain; San Guillermo will be about 2 miles rt with 800' gain.
