To celebrate the end of this semester's classes, join guides Oliver and John as we summit San Gorgonio, the TALLEST PEAK in SoCal! We will be leaving on Saturday morning and starting our 20 mile, 5500ft gain adventure up San Gorgonio! Make up for a semester's worth of missed leg days on this two day long thigh burner. We will aim to reach the summit at toward the end of the first day and then hike back to the trailhead on Sunday morning, leaving plenty of time in the afternoon for you to relax before finals.
