| wyopeakMike | a fine summit  | |
| I once hiked over from Eaton Saddle a long time ago and I really thought Mt Markham was a great peak. The rocky profile and the short scramble to the top made it a very worthy peak. | |

| I wasn't thinking when I left the house, even though I can see the peak from my back yard. So, I hit the trail my my sneakers, only get get my feet soaked. It was a nice day, though. Mt. Wilson Road was closed, so I had to hike up the road to Eaton saddle. The dog had a grand time. | |

| One of five peaks that day with my brother-in-law. I was just getting into hiking and climbing and I credit my partner on this trip with really introducing me into this pastime. | |

| Since SR-2 was closed due to rockfall, Mt Markham was our cheap ass consolation hike for driving 4 damn hours to San Gabriels. :P My daughter and I hit it "hard" and Class 2'd up the tallus highway on Markham's north face. Interesting views even though I thought it was Mt Lowe. Oh well, we turned via the trail and peed in the tunnel. Fun day. | |

| One of the peaks I hadn't been to yet. Nice short, steep trail. We did it late in the afternoon so it had cooled off a lot by the time we came down. | |

| 135driver | Loved it | |
| I have the dates for these guys written down somewhere. I did this one via Eaton Saddle and the big old tunnel. It was extremely foggy that day. I felt great and the hike reminded me of the Sunset Firebreak. Really spooky seeing that tunnel appear around the corner in the fog. Gay. | |

| mgeo | hps hike #7 for me Date Climbed: Apr 14, 2007 | |
| We completed Markham and Occidental today and I loved this hike. Did a little geocaching at the top, snapped some photos from the end, and signed a trail register that was in a tupperware canister. I would recommend coupling this hike with at least one other, while in the area. | |

| Smith93 | Mt. Markham and San Gabriel Date Climbed: Jan 27, 2007 | |
| Hiked to the top along the use trail from the saddle between Mt. Lowe and Markham. Kinda lousy weather, cold and clouds with no view. Went on to hike San Gabriel peak later. | |

| Luciano136 | From Eaton Saddle Date Climbed: Jan 27, 2007 | |
| This was supposed to be the first peak of 4-5 that day. Unfortunately the weather turned out to be way worse than forecasted. We still went up Markham, which was fully cloud covered. By the time we could get down, we were fairly wet and it started raining more. We decided to leave it for the next time and drove up to the Ranch for some food instead. Hiked with Mike (wetsponge007). | |
