Re: Chaos at Covington Flats (Joshua Tree)

That was some experience! Camping in freezing temps and unforgiving windchill.

I really enjoyed the canyon and the cool ass rocks. At least we bagged one peak that had some nice views.

I can also check off my list the sculptures that I've been dying to see.

Cool hike, nice views, great lunch and we all shed some blood, sweat and tears.

A few lazy bones at the summit and a few first timer grilled cheesers.

My friend Shurovi took this one photo of the Condor. It flew right over us as she was taking our group photo. We weren't fast enough to grab our phones and get more pics.

GEM LAKES & SPECTACULAR FALL COLORS IN BISHOP

Two weeks ago, I carpooled with a friend to Bishop. The objective was to meet a group on Saturday and hike to Gem lakes. We arrived on Friday afternoon and first drove to McGee Creek since it was recommended. Plus we couldn't check into our hotel yet. The drive along McGee Creek road to the trailhea...

Cucamonga Peak

Last Wednesday I hiked to Cucamonga peak with my friend. I really wanted to see the fall foliage in the canyon and it did not disappoint. There was lots of water flowing in the streams. The weather was nice. Once we reached Ice House Saddle it was very windy. We met a couple of people that turned ar...

Looks like you traded your poles for a new hiking companion. Maybe they will turn up on this thread. Believe it or not! I posted that I left my poles in the parking lot on Facebook SoCal hikers and this morning someone replied they found them. Now I need to figure out how I'm getting them. Now that...

A perfect day for a hike. The islip ridge trail was new to me and I was loving it until the last 2 miles.
