"1.22.26~ Forlorn Lonesome Peak…w/Laszlo and Jean-Claude Gendarmes! 2 miles 700’ gain from the Mohave Overlook. We were both tired from interrupted sleep, his from granddaughter and mine from my doggie and wanted something mellow. We didn’t quite achieve MELLOW but we got something memorable and majestic. WOW!….Just WoW! The views and challenges in this short distance hike are legendary! The summit is the size of an end table. I used Jeep road & hike info from Stav Basis website @ stavislost.com. 24 miles round trip in Laszlo’s Jeep. He has a Jeep is Wrangler but never used 4x4 mode but there are 2 short sections of rock gardens that are bumpy. Take dirt road E to F from 95 at the Pet cemetery Thank you for generously offering to drive us out to this hike. I’ve been wanting to accomplish this one for such a LONG time. So spectacular! After, we pigged out on perfectly fried Jack-in-the-box egg rolls, tacos, chicken fingers and crispy coke-zero in BC. Funzies. " — paula.raimondi • Jan 22, 2026
