| Deb | USE the Road!  Date Climbed: Jan 28, 2010 | |
| First time skinning up Cuyamaca....had the place to myself. Was fairly icy and shot-out with deep bootprints, but I made it work. Beautiful sunny day, got myself a suntan and a great work-out! Feels kinda crazy to go XC skiing in San Diego County. :) | |

| Miroslava | Avoid the road! Date Climbed: Jan 4, 2010 | |
| Took the paved road up. It was sad to look at all the burned trees. Being quite bored I fell asleep half the way up. Missed all the views from the top. On the way down we decided to take a trail that went to the saddle north of the peak. That was much more fun! It became quite cold after the sun went down. Had to cry a bit so that my father would carry me in his arms. Much warmer this way! | |

| There was a rattlesnake on the road. There were lots of flowers and they smelled good. Climbed it with Papa, KK and Hope. | |

| Nick Comer | Into the clouds Date Climbed: Mar 30, 2008 | |
| We hiked into the clouds where we were privileged to strong winds and rain. The rocks at the summit were warm from UV light and provided refuge from the weather. The rain would only fall where the wind was compressed from a crease on the west side of the mountain. It was amazing. | |

| Livelife4Summits | Great Start to 2009 Climbing Year... Date Climbed: Jan 31, 2009 | |
| Took my girl Jeri on her first real hike...good for her that the asphalt trail is relatively easy for a beginner approach. Nice short day trip. | |

| Jogged up the fire road the day before the San Diego RnR marathon. Did stonewall and some other area HPS peaks later in the day. | ||

| Deb | Azalea Trail Loop Date Climbed: Dec 21, 2008 | |
| Perfect day for snowshoeing! Found at least 2' of snow to the top and totally warm temps shortly after sunrise. Had the place to myself for the trip up, but encountered the typically "trailer park trash" in jeans and sweatshirts on my descent and in the Paso Picacho Campground parking lot at end of trip. YUK! Give me some wine!! | |

| surgent | Long on the "to-do" list Date Climbed: Oct 4, 2008 | |
| Been meaning to come here for years. Big fire kept us away for awhile until the land healed a bit. Nice easy hike, nice views despite oncoming storm front. Stonewall across the way looks a lot more interesting, so we'll be back. | |

| lidijagrazulis | Before the fire | |
| Hiked up to the summit several times, before the devastating Cedar Fire. Nice to see the photos of the forest recovering. | |

| Been up a number of times. The best way is to take the north trail to the top. | |

| Bombchaser | Southeastly Approach Date Climbed: Jan 21, 2007 | |
| I gained the summit via a long aproach form the southeast from somewhere below the state park. I lost all of my tracking data on a previous hard drive so I don't have all the details. I know the weather was sunny, several inches of snow on the ground, and lots of downed trees to negotiate. | |

| GroundControl | Via Fire Road Date Climbed: Feb 8, 2008 | |
| Nice day hike with the wife up the fire road, snow was on the ground for ~1.5 miles to the top! They need to do something about those antennas though...takes away from such a beautiful view. | |

| benjamingray | Fire Road Date Climbed: Jan 13, 2008 | |
| Been putting this one off due to the paved road to the summit...picked the clearest day of the year to hike to the top, we had views of the Salton Sea, Rabbit, and the snow in the San Gabriels and on San G. Met a blind guy who hiked the road solo, "been doin' it for 27 years" he said. Looped Middle Peak with Cuyamaca for a decent 5 hour day. | |
