"Great time with my wife Brenda, my daughter Stephanie & her friend Josh-Oh, lets not forget Freya the super Dog! parked at the turnout at Cow Canyon-there is a new sign saying "no trespassing" with a locked gate going into the canyon-we parked crossed the street and on our way-did the "scrambles" shortcut for fun on the way up and took the trail down to break it up a little-fun day and great views-could not find the sign box though-if anyone can give a clue? Or I can bring a new one up if there isn't one any more!" — Curt • Dec 12, 2015
"A two-peak day; I followed Sunset with South Hawkins. The parking lot at the trailhead had plenty of "no parking; you will be ticketed and towed" signs, which I took at face value (although plenty of cars were parked there and seemed unaffected). So I parked in a pull-out a little further down the hill toward Baldy Village. I though that this hike would be super easy, but it's actually quite steep. No worries, though. It was a gorgeous day to be hiking above the clouded in basin!" — HikerMark • Mar 22, 2015
"Sunset was the second peak we bagged that day. [First tagged Lookout Mountain 6,812', 4.54 mi., 2,900' g.] With a 5:30 pm start we hiked briskly up the fire road until we hit the use-trail up the ridge and to the summit. (Summited at 8:15) About 15-20 minutes later we were treated with an amazing sunset atop Sunset Peak. A mere minute or so after sun down, we watched the full moon rise over Ontario Peak. Amazing! Beautiful! Damn, we were spoiled!" — Mountain-Rain • Sep 18, 2013
"Too much snow at the high elevations so I went up to Sunset instead. Took the ridge route from Cow Canyon Saddle up, then the trail/fire road down. Temperature was about 32 on the summit." — jeffhubatka • Nov 5, 2011
"A simple fire road, to an amazing view of the Higher San Gabriel Mountains, where you can view Mount Baldy, Ontario Peak and Timber Mountain. and the city of Rancho Cucamonga. On a clear day, you can see as far as Mount Wilson. " — JuanAlvarenga • Mar 13, 2011
