I compiled a list for SummitPost of what I thought were the toughest one-day hikes in the San Gabriels. Have a look.

This is a neat site for gps tracks and info on peaks, and routes. It is a wiki so it is created and edited by users. http://www.tierrawiki.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Here is the page I created fo Newcomb's Ranch Restaurant.

If anyone has anything to add, please let me know. I found their service to be really, truly top-notch, and the food delicious. If anyone is an SP member on here, I'll be more than happy to share the page as a co-editor, to get better info out to the people.

Their chili burgers kick ass. Looking forward to a few drinks there after some climbs near Williamson this winter.

I stopped working on it when I got sick last night.

I can't put routes on it! Argh! Otherwise I'd put down the 5.13c burger, etc etc. I think you can attach a route anyway... I just followed the Whoa Nelly Deli page, which is also a "custom object".

Not sure if you'd get a frontal shot, but you'd definitely see some buns with that one ...

Hi Everyone,

I'm the new guy here and I wanted to share my passion with you. I like to go on long hikes to visit military wreck sites. As many of you already know, there are two crash sites just North of Mt. Williamson

A C-46 Commando, and a C-119 Boxcar. A really good site to visit is the C-130 crash site below Pleasant View Ridge.

Anyone else like to visit these sites?

My favorite resource can be found here Joe idoni Crash sites


Bill,

One of my buddies also does this.

I've been to the West Baldy USMC F6F Hellcat crash site, but I think that's it.

Hey Bill,

Just joined the group because my friend Taco told me about it. I'm into wrecks too. Been focusing on peakbagging of late, but now going back to wrecks, lookout towers , and rocks. I've wanted to visit that B-25 Mill Canyon wreck for awhile. Maybe we can combine efforts. I have been looking at Idoni's site for awhile now just dreaming of going to some of those sites. He gets around. I have some ideas for wrecks I want to check out. theron

I got half way down the slope to the B-25 but turned around. The Chaparral was over eight feet tall, and I couldn't find a clear route. Had I not brought my young daughter with me, I probably would have "bulldozed" my way down the hill.

Perhaps we can make an attempt some day.

Kayaking in the San Gabriels? Ran across this site and figured it would be of interest to you canyoneering types.

I watched some dudes kayaking down East Fork last week. Looks like a ton of fun!
