Icehouse Cyn and Wind
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!

Great fall hike
Hiked from icehouse canyon. Great hike! Above the clouds and fog on the summit and down in the fog in icehouse canyon on the way back. Snow on San G from recent storm.
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.

Nothing out of the ordinary - just another great day in the San G's...

3rd time
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.

From Bighorn
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.

Via Middle Fork
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.

Beautiful Day
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.

Perfect Day
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.

Ice House
Wasn't in shape. Long trduge, leg cramping. Toughed it out and bagged the peak.

Good summer hike, great view
Nothing like being in the high country of the San Gabriels in the summer. Very nice clear day too.

Very Windy!
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!

Excellent Socal Basin View
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.

SW Ridge
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!!
