Harrison is #6 on the Lower Peaks list at 4743'. It sits just off highway 330 as you head toward Big Bear.

It was supposed to be short and sweet, but the middle section of the use trail was very overgrown. Spring is probably not the best time to go.

Image
Lots of this in the way

Image
And lots of this surrounding and invading the trail...

Image
...which led me to rip my rain poncho in half for leg protection

In addition to the hazardous plants, I brushed nine ticks off me. Charming mountain. :)
