I really dig the trail running thing, especially if/when I can get back to middle high san gabriels.

The Verdugos offer nice routes - you can spend the first part heading up, 2nd part going flat traversing, then head back down. After doing a run from Brand Park, this time I started from the Chandler Fire road on the northwest end, and headed SW past Verdugo peak to some viewpoint and turned around.
However, surprisingly 16 mile trail runs are not good for what I think is ankle impingement. "Rest" is probably in order....although maybe now I'll turn to some road cycling for a while.
Verdugo Mts via Chandler Fire Road

An early start is essential the later in the winter / spring seasons progressNice! 1hr 31 min to Verdugo Peak (area) via Chandler. That first part out of Edmore Pl is steeper than SH*TZé wrote:headed SW past Verdugo peak to some viewpoint and turned around.
