WHERE IS HE????? SEARCH AND RESCUE NEEDED!!!!!
What ever happened to Hikin-Jim? He didn't take a long hike off a short mountain, did he? Maybe his knee gave out somewhere in the foothills and now he's just a big pile of coyote food. We found Yoskolo. No where are you HJ? http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-confused004.gif http://www.freesm...

I never though of Half Dome as a training ground for the Himalayas. Thats kind of cool in itself.

Maybe some of us on this board can put a little effort into uploading many more trails (common trails) onto this site from the ANF. Well, I guess any trails form Southern Cal can be uploaded. I think I'll upload some of my favorites.

Re: Guided hiking in the San Gabriel Mountains
This site is probably just some bum trying to make an easy buck. But, on that same token, if we look in almost any mountain region, there are guided trips for those who have both the money and lack of knowledge to do the trip themselves. As an avid hiker, I know I can find resources for nearly any r...

Bill - glad to see you're up there having some fun. After all, that is why you moved up there - right? Al that wonderful snow you have to dig out every snowfall.
You been snowshoeing around the area with all the new snow? Or you still digging your house out?
