| sierradiscgolfer | Another awesome night hike!  Date Climbed: Jul 14, 2007 | |
| Started at 7:10pm hiking with my 14yr old daughter. It was definitely turning to dark by Saddle Jnct. Got back to the car at Humber before midnight. We used headlamps for the hike down for better speed. | |

| Not in this weather anyway ... No views as a spring blizzard was gaining strength through the day, but a great day in the hills nevertheless. | |

| asmrz | Another winter day hike to Tahquitz Peak Date Climbed: Jan 15, 2007 | |
| Penelope and I hiked the South Ridge Trail on January 15, 2007 all the way from the High Castle area of Idyllwild (due to winter road closure). Since we left second car at Humber Park, we crossed the Tahquitz Bowl to Devils Slide and Humber Park on some deep and in places fairly frozen snow (no crampons needed). Another good day in our neigborhood | |

| regolithe | Fun little hike | |
| I really enjoyed this hike. I liked the lookout tower. This represented the breaking of a climbing fast that I had been experiencing, and It reminded me of what i am missing out on | |

| Enjoyable climb with the exception of the flies. They simply laughed off my insect repellent lotion (spray is probably better). Failed on my bid to add Lily Rock. I'll try it again on the correct switchback. | |

| kngalaric | Too many times to count | |
| I volunteered here for two seasons at the fire lookout. I'll go back after my books are published. Great hike from any direction. Excellent views. The sunrises and sunsets are more than spectacular from this vantagepoint. | |

| Quick hike up Devils Slide, beautiful trail, just gray and muggy out though! The desert divide area looks real promising. I have to get out that way next year. Especially want to do Antsell. | |

| Kerstin | South Ridge Trail many times | |
| I hiked up this peak for the first time in January of 1984. There was only a little bit of snow due to the dry winter. I hiked it several more times in the eighties. The last time was in December of 1999 by myself. I love this place! | |

| Penelope May and I snow-shoed up the South Ridge trail from the Highcastle area of Idyllwild (due to winter road closure). Wonderful snowy views of Garner Valley and the desert peaks along the way. About three feet of snow at the summit lookout hut. | |

| Cookie Addict | Route Climbed: Long Route Date Climbed: July 2004 | |
| 3 friends and I did this nice trad route in about 3 hours. The Mummy Chimney sucked... It was a great day and in addition to the great climbing there were LOTS of laughs. | |

| vaj1111 | Route Climbed: South Ridge Trail Date Climbed: Jan 16, 2005 | |
| Started up the trail at 10:00am and reached the top about 1:20pm. Crisp and cool hike with very little snow on the trail. Uper sections of the switchbacks were icy in spots. We had the lookout to ourselves on a beautiful clear day. Views to the ocean and out 100 miles. Cold NE winds made standing on the north side of the firetower tough but the SW and lee sides of the tower were warm and sunny. Made it back to the truck in less than 2 hours. | ||

| Guyzo | Route Climbed: South ridge trail Date Climbed: December, 11 2005 | |
| A nice cool day in December. Started at 10:20am. Hit the top at 12:30. The leg was weak but it made it. Very clear day (this would be a fab place to watch a sunrise) You can clearly see Josh, esp Ryan Mt. The Sultan Sea, the peaks east of San Diego. To the west you can see the Ocean, The LA downtown, Mt Wilson and way way out by my house, Santa Paula Peak. That is more than 100 miles! This is a pretty good hike. | |
