San Gorgonio Hiking, Holga 120GN, 2013

San Gorgonio Mountain is the highest peak in Southern California at 11,503 feet (3,506 m). It lies within the San Gorgonio Wilderness, part of the San Bernardino National Forest. San Gorgonio Mountain is one of the most topographically prominent peaks in the United States. Several trails lead to the broad summit of San Gorgonio Mountain, which rises a few hundred feet (100 m) above the tree line. Most routes require well over 4,000 feet (1,200 m) of elevation gain. The trail leading from the Fish Creek Trailhead to San Gorgonio Mountain has about 3,400 feet (1,000 m) of gain, less than the routes from the South Fork and Vivian Creek trailheads – [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Gorgonio_Mountain]
