Went up to Icehouse Saddle this morning. The temperature was nice when I arrived at the trailhead at 7:15 but warmed up considerbly by the time we were on our way back..... My original destination was supposed to be Cucamonga Peak but once I reached the saddle I knew that was out of the question due to the heat. Was a nice hike overall outside of the intensity of the sun in the more exposed areas, but nice and well shaded at the bottom of the canyon. Columbine spring and the creek at the bottom of the canyon were flowing really well.... Overall a very nice hike, just a little too hot!! 8)
