| Dave and I took a relatively quick trot to bag 4 peaks in the San Gabriels. 4 of 4, now I have no reason to go back in Icehouse Canyon cuz that trailhead is a filthy dump! | |

| Wild | Overlooking the city | |
| High prominence over the city below, great views of surrounding peaks, healthy vegetation, and a good introduction to the San Gabriel Mountains. Have done Icehouse Canyon/Cucamonga Peak Trail from TR in July. | |

| Hiked up Ice House Canyon. First went to Cucamonga then just followed the ridgeline down and picked up the Joe Elliot Trail for a bit then on up to the summit of Etiwanda. Nice little peak with great views. Pretty hot day. | |

| cab | From Bighorn Date Climbed: Dec 5, 2009 | |
| Up Falling Rock Canyon, ridge traverse to Ontario, then Bighorn, down to Bighorn-Cucamonga saddle, up Cucamonga, then over to Etiwanda. Some ice on the trail up Cucamonga, but not too bad. Cold and windy on top. | |

| Don't tell anyone about this route. Not much traffic till you get to the saddle. A seldom experienced--and altogether different--perspective on the range. A repeat performance. | |

| mdostby | Beautiful Day Date Climbed: Nov 16, 2009 | |
| Spur of the moment decision to go for a hike. Exceptionaly clear day. Trail from Ice House Saddle to the summit was a bit icy in places. | |

| SierraCJ | Perfect Day Date Climbed: Oct 30, 2009 | |
| From Icehouse Canyon on a picture perfect day! Previous hike to peak was in December on a windy, cold day with no views. Much worth the effort this time. Next trip will include Etiwanda Peak. | |

| TheGoat | Good summer hike, great view Date Climbed: Sep 10, 2008 | |
| Nothing like being in the high country of the San Gabriels in the summer. Very nice clear day too. | |

| gaudzdice51 | Very Windy! Date Climbed: Dec 13, 2008 | |
| Hiked up from Icehouse Canyon. From there, my father and I went up the wind and ice driven trail to Cucamonga. Unfortunately, there were no views from the top due to the clouds. Very cold, but very fun! | |

| farrisgl | Excellent Socal Basin View Date Climbed: May 13, 2006 | |
| I really like this summit. It is longer hike than Baldy and is is about 1000 feet lower in elevation, however sits right on the end of the LA Basin looking almost straight down. | |

| forjan | SW Ridge Date Climbed: Feb 24, 2009 | |
| Climbed with Mike and Tony. Like they said, bushwack/whitethorn and constant knee deep post-holing. I punched through once waist-deep and smacked my right knee on a buried rock. Hurt for a bit. Crux is the class 3 chossy section about 3/4 of the way up. Helmet is a good idea! Started at 7:30am and didn't summit til 2:50pm. Tedious route!! | |

| Blackmouth | SW Ridge-Winter Ascent Date Climbed: Feb 24, 2009 | |
| Took Deer Canyon to the SW Ridge of Cucamonga Peak. Climbed with Forjan & Mdostby. There was nothing fast about this route, lots of buckbrush and lots of deep postholing even with snow shoes on. Eventually had to ditch the snow shoes and just postholed all the way up. I think that this route would actually be a-lot harder later in the season without the snow, there is no trail higher up and a-lot of brush to get through. There was also a small chossy section of class 3 to get through. Bring a helmet! June 5th, 2012 4th Summit of Cucamonga Peak. Car to car in 6 1/2 hours. Used my leatherman to fix the pole to an American Flag on the summit. Got a great summit pic with the flag in the background. No snow,no ice and no summit register. | |
