I: Wright Mountain (8,505'), Pine Mountain #1 (9,648'), and Dawson Peak (9,575') - Join us for a classic, high-altitude peak-bagging adventure in the San Gabriel Mountains as we check three premier HPS summits off the list: Wright Mountain (8,505'), Pine Mountain #1 (9,648'), and Dawson Peak (9,575'). We will begin our trip from Wrightwood, ascending via the steep and scenic Acorn Trail. This trail will bring us up to the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) ridge, where we will first bag Wright Mountain. From there, we will head west along the rugged, pine-forested ridgeline to tackle the steep climbs up Pine Mountain #1 and Dawson Peak. The total for the day will be about 12 miles with a 5,200-foot gain. Please bring 2-3 liters of water, lunch, layers for potential desert wind, and sturdy hiking boots.
