Great shots Torrey, keep them coming

Identifying software application for I-phones
OK Techies, three years ago a friend showed me an app on his new I-phone that when the camera was on or the mapping software, cannot remember which, he could point his phone at the surrounding hills and it will name the peaks - had to be a known peak but it was fun to play with. I'm out of touch wit...

Re: The most remote parts of the San Gabriel mountains
Good enough answer. :-) 1. Fish Fork (if canyoneered) 2. Twin Peaks branch of West Fork San Gabe (just south of Twin Peaks) 3. Roberts Canyon just north of Azusa. Close to civilization, but it's real untracked as far as I can tell. Very thick in there. 4. Iron Fork of the East Fork San Gabe 5. Uppe...

Re: The most remote parts of the San Gabriel mountains
I'll second that, Fish Fork South of Wrightwood at the base of Northwest Baldy chute or the drainage downstream from there is as remote as one can get - only know a handfull of individuals that have been back there - it's extemely nice and pristinetpfishnfool wrote: ↑Fish Fork

The hunter should be charged for failing to identify his target clearly. Not homicide but some type of lesser manslaughter charge.
