"Picked off the three peaks surrounding Table Mountain Campground. Parked in the Table Mountain Parking lot and walked through the campground to reach FR 4N03. This begins when turning right at site 112. I went to Peak 6703 first, then returned to a junction with FR 4N04. This time I took 4N04 all the way to Peak 6678. Both peaks required brief off trail travel to stand on the high points. After climbing back to the parking lot, I quickly added Table Mountain, which was right behind the North Resort Restaurant at the end of the parking lot." — MikeTeeples • Jul 22, 2023
"I parked at the edge of the huge Table Mountain parking lot, just past the entrance to Table Mountain Campground. I walked through the campground and headed toward site 112. To the right of this site, the paved road leaves the campground and goes into the forest and eventually turns to dirt. After a few twists in the road, the road splits. I took the left fork. At that point, Peak 6703 comes into view to the right. The road bends around toward the mountain and elevated up the slopes. Eventually, the road began passing the high point. I left the road here and went up a short gully to the summit." — MikeTeeples • Jun 13, 2020
"Well, in the age of Covid-19 and Social Distancing, many popular trailheads and USFS facilities are closed! Oh, woe is me, right? Not really! I just have to get creative and research a little harder in finding great solitude hikes. So, I was looking at the topo maps on Peakbagger in the San Gabriel Mountains near Table Mountain and Big Pines for some inspiration. It did not take long, and I found a very random summit that is barely a "blip" on the map, and it does not even have a Peakbagger page!!!! It is close enough to Big Pines Hwy (Los Angeles County route N4) to make for a short, but adventurous cross-country hike in solitude. I added the peak to here on Peakery. The out-and-back round trip is roughly 2 1/4 miles, but don't let the short distance fool you: this hike has a lot of ups and downs over steep, loose ravines with a lot of deadfall and some moderate bushwhacking!!!! What I did is park at a large turnout shaded by trees at mile marker 10.48 on Big Pines Hwy at elevation 6,330' (between Big Pines and Jackson Lake). I hiked east 150' up a steep berm to a small ridge, and downclimbed 400 feet down a gully northeast down into lush and beautiful Cedar Canyon. I a..." — brianpowell • May 9, 2020
