EISPIRATEN

Small group of friends, drinking around a fire. We arn't bros looking to wreak havoc. We are more likely to sit and talk video games than play beer pong in the woods

We are all from Long Beach, so we usually head up via Clarmont area along the 210.

Hi everyone! The San Gabriel's are my favorite mountains to hike around here. I want to have a camping trip with my buddies for a bachelor party. (Getting married Nov 3rd). I am trying to find campsites near by, but the internet's reviews i just never know if i should trust or not. Does anyone here ...

I am very interested! Depending on date will depend on how much gear i can gather by then, but i will beg, borrow, and steal (okay not steal..) if need be.

I can't wait!

I love the San Gabriels, and have made it my summer hiking home the past few years, and this year i wanted to introduce myself to some winter hiking / climbing. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or know of any groups that go up throughout the winter for this sort of thing? My end goal is...

Is there any place anyone can think of that i may be able to walk up or reserve for next friday through the weekend? I know this is horrible timing with the long weekend, but was wondering if any camp grounds anyone would recommend? More trails around the better! Thanks!

Knees eh? Are any of the hikes mentioned above near this trail? I am trying to think of a back up hike if those i am with sent comfortable with the water level. Thanks for the help!

Thanks!

Are there any other fun hikes in the area that would be good to bring a first timer on, that wouldnt involve too much snow?

How does everyone think this hike might be this weekend? I havent done it before so not too sure what to expect other than feet will get wet.

Or any other decent day hikes anyone would recommend?

I am so glad I went! We only got as far as the saddle as my first timer was kaput by then. It was beautiful out, with some minor difficult icy spots that we were able to cross pretty easily. I think it was colder up there when i went last may than it was last weekend in February. I am also glad i we...

Great! I will let everyone know how it goes, thanks again.

Thats great to hear as well! I am taking a first timer tomorrow. If they arnt dead by Saddle, you suggest cucamunga?

Thats great! Thanks for the reply, I doubt i'll go past the saddle.

Hi Everyone!

I haven't hiked around San Gabriel's in this time of year before. Does anyone have an idea of what Ice House may be like this time of year? I want to take a nice hike, and don't mind a little snow, but i don't have crampons or anything.
