| Dingus Milktoast | Little Blue Again Date Climbed: Dec 5, 2009 | |
| Took a stroll up the Milktoast Highway, spur of the moment. About an 8-hour round trip. No water in Davis creek thankfully - DRY FEET! Very surprising at the amount of vegetation regrowth along the highway. Still had to crawl in about 5 places, under brush. The cuts Bob and I did are now old looking and hard to find. Most all trail markers and survey tape are gone. The Highway is returning to chaparral. Need a pruning crew in there! | |

| derbilly | Worst hike ever?  Date Climbed: May 15, 2004 | |
| It was hot. I bushwacked through 7' high thornbush, manzanita and scrub oak, much of it on my hands and knees. Flies plagued me at the summit. At the time I thought it was the worst hike I'd ever done. Now, I have fond memories of the day and have enjoyed endless respect from fellow county highpointers having proved my dedication to the endeavor. It is a rite of passage for CA highpointers. | |

| Climbed with Dingus, clearing the route along the creek and near the summit. Beautiful winter day, and much fun whacking. The poison oak was much less fun a few days later. Trip Report | |

| Chris Doig | Route Climbed: there was a route? Date Climbed: December 4, 2004 | |
| So you think it has to be a high mountain to be a challenge? Try this one. Bring full body armour a machete, 2 pairs loppers (mine broke) and some porters to hack a trail for you. Ok i'm partially kidding. Oh and be leary of going on a trip with Dean or Dennis or Dan as their idea of fun is a little different. Great day with excellent company | |

| Dennis Poulin | Route Climbed: Brush Date Climbed: 24 April 2004 | |
| Ugly climb. Lost lots of blood and got a bad case of poison oak. Such a bad experience that I went back and summitted again on December 4, 2004. | |

| I did this hike with Dan Baxter and SP'ers Dennis Poulin and Chris Doig. Chris and Dan both brought loppers but thanks to Dennis's previous experience with this hike, he saved us from fighting the brush all the way. More info will be available in my trip report which I'm certain I'll post as soon as I can do so. We did only part of the BLM route and then went on private property since one of the members of our group knew the landowners. Please respect the request of the landowners that people not tresspass on it. | |
