"A nice hike to all of the peaks mentioned (Mt San Antonio, West Baldy, Mt Harwood). Used Register Ridge to summit. Started at Manker Flats at 6AM and ended at Manker Flats at 1PM. Passed San Antonio Falls, didn't visit. Some snow left, but not a lot. Beautiful views from every corner of this hike!!

"I started late on this hike, and it took longer than I thought it would. The summit was a bit windy overnight, but not bad. With the millions of people in Southern California, I find I’d amazing that I had the highest point to myself! Awesome!" — Mojavewanderer • Jun 13, 2022

"What does one do after sitting in a late morning meeting? Why, decide to climb a mountain, of course. We started out rather late in the day after a bumpy ride to the trail head, but nevertheless, we hit the trail a little after 4pm. While hubby said it would be an eight-mile excursion, when we hit the two-mile point and weren't halfway there yet, I had a feeling he might have been off in his estimates. After clicking pics of the bounty of flowers (and capturing a local Grabiod sighting - Kevin Bacon, we need you) we made good time on the 10-mile round trip. Hike stats: 4:08 hours, 10.57 mi, and 1,473' elevation gained. " — erinfetters • May 22, 2022

"Today, my friend and I were gonna try to climb Escapula Peak nearby across the San Andreas fault line in the San Emigdio Ranges, but we got a little lazy and then went to the Mt. Pinos Nordic Base to do the very easy 4 mile r/t Mt. Pinos hike. Despite the snow, there were a lot of clear spots as well, so it was not too sketchy! It was my first "high altitude" hike of 2022, so here's hoping for more high peak climbs in 2022!" — brianpowell • May 4, 2022

"I started at 5Am and it was not dark atall. It was not a grind to get to Mill Creek because it was a flat and paved road. Mill Creek crossing was fine, just a little rocky. We moved up to the San Gorgonio Wilderness signs and they were cool. Then after that there was cool mixed conifer forests for awhile. Then we saw the Vivian Creek Camp. Then we saw Halfway Camp. After that came High Creek. P>S it was boring up to High Creek except for the High Creek Falls. Then we climbed up a steep gully up to the ridge. The ridge had this neat viewpoint and some boring summits along it. Then there was deep snow and a steep climb to San Gorgonio's saddle. Then we took lots of pics of the signs and the treeline. The summit had superb views, a sign, and no benchmark (some big idiot stole it)." — lcnguyen • Mar 15, 2022
