Hot dry summers, moist cool winters? Scrub land plants (we call it chaparal, I suspect you do as well?) in the lower ranges?
Hard to find someone off trail, if so? Thick brush, very difficult to navigate?

Yep, I think Pedriza's climate is similar to parts of California though I've never been in the USA. Summers are warm and somehow dry. Winters are cool but not so moist. Concerning chaparral (with double R), there are many rockroses at low altitudes. They are named jaras in Spanish. So we call jaral to that thicket. It's very hard to find someone off trail and that combined with rocks make La Pedriza seems like a labyrinth
