EISPIRATEN

Wow, big day! Never hiked in the San Emigdio Mountains before, looking forward to a chance to change that. Looks like a stark change in geology with Eagle Rest becoming sandstone as one nears the central valley, but then Antimony is more San Gabriel plutonic intrusive igneous in character. Never stu...

In 2017 my sister in law was hired by Weber University in Ogden, Utah, and then a couple years later my parents bought a house along the edge of the city to spend more time with my brother's family. I thus had a date with the Wasatch Range. 3 years in, there have been many follow-up dates, and the r...

Wow! That area is impressive. Congrats on completing this. Utah has some of the coolest terrain. Wasatch looks really different from the national parks. Your mapping skills are crazy. What were the total stats for that loop? All the national parks in Utah are on the Colorado Plateau in the southern...

During these deep summer weeks where the temps are in the triple digits and the mountains are generally pretty uninhabitable to humans around here, we all need ways to keep distracted until things cool off. (I spent hours tracing routes for about 20 upcoming 12-mile radius hikes...) Last night I was...

Probably wrong time of year. You might try Aliso (Zelzah) or Limekiln (Tampa). Those are 'park' and have good trail networks, cross the creeks a few times, always have frogs singing in the eve. West end of Vanowen, the 'south fork' of Bell Canyon, might have some. There are huge water tanks on the ...

Its in the section past Red Box that has been closed.
Its where Markham looks like it has crazy exposure poking up behind San Gabriel.
