Trip Report:
I was back to give San Gorgonio another shot before the winter was over. The plan for this trip also included the remainder of the 8 peaks along the ridge from San Gorgonio to San Bernardino Peak. This would be done over a span of two days.

Trip Report:
I have wanted to hike San Gorgonio in winter for quite awhile. I had never been up the South Fork in the summer or winter so I wanted to go with a group that knew the area. There was a meetup posted with the SoCal Hikers and Peakbaggers which I joined.

On the flight from San Diego to Denver I had a window seat and was able to take some photos of the mountains around southern California. I could recognize most of the prominent peaks and some of the less prominent ones. It was amazing to see the mountains I have hiked from this vantage point.

Trip Report:
San Gorgonio is the highest mountain in southern California and a very enjoyable hike. It rises to 11,499 feet above sea level. This was my second time hiking San Gorgonio. I had hiked this peak once 7 years before from the same trailhead. This is also the most popular trail. There must have been at least 50 people hiking on Saturday.
