To make things a little easier, here's a map of Southern California Peaks above 10,000 Feet in Elevation. You'll need to zoom in and scroll around a bit.

I've listed the letter designations below. The letters serve only to designate which peak is which; the order of the letters is not significant.

1. "L" San Gorgonio Mountain – 11,499’ (per topo map but recent estimates place it at 11,502’) – San Gorgonio Wilderness – HPS
2. "K" Jepson Peak – 11,205’ – San Gorgonio Wilderness – HPS

Be not dismayed. I've been at this for quite some time, and I've only done 21 out of 24. I hope to change that count by the end of the week. :)

You're welcome.

By the way, I've now completed the list (as of Nov, 2012). My last several were:
Bighorn Mountain and The Dragon's Head
Newton Drury Peak

I've got the whole list as a page as well:
Southern California Peaks above 10,000 Feet/3048 Meters in Elevation

Happy hiking,
