Made a run at Monrovia Peak, but was turned back by icy snow conditions on the east ridge about 400' short of the peak. Hiked up via the Upper Clamshell /Rincon-Red Box roads for a nice 20 mile round trip walk in beautiful conditions. Great views.

Looking up the shaded, steep east ridge (having just trail runners on, I couldn't make any progress up this part - I don't own any winter gear :oops: )...
