Did you

continue along the hill below you? It looks very inviting.

Re: Did you

Sure did. This picture was taken from below the summit of Saddleback Mountain. I'm heading north to the Horn. That saddle is a great mile and a half walk.

Our turn

it is a great walk...much steeper than it looks. Gets very icy too...

We are heading back there this Sunday to actually make it TO that horn...go Microspikes!

Re: Our turn

Are you starting at Route 4 and heading north? When I did it, we started at the Saddleback ski resort parking lot. Let us know how it is.

Rte 4

Yup...we started at Rte 4 the first time...made it to the summit...but turned back before we made it down to the saddle. We wanted to hit the horn but it was too slippery without any type of crampon. So...we've got ourselves microspikes...and we are going to try again.

We will probably hit it at 4:00 or 5:00 am so we have time to hit the horn before it gets dark...again.
