Trail running route - Verdugo Mtn

edenooch · Trail running route - Verdugo Mtn

This is one of my usual. Instead of entering thru brand Park. I use the Beaudry trailhead off of Country club Dr cause its on the shade side of the mountain. I take the left fork upto Tongva peak to Skyline View Point and back. See some deer bobcat and hawks usually. Few bikers, but mostly nice and quiet!
~8mi 2000ft gain 2.5 hours

Yeah
Beaudry Loop... Ah I know it well

I have hiked the Verdugos for years. Great place for conditioning

My loop Du jour these days is La Tuna / Hostetter to Verdugo Peak

I've been blowing away my old personal bests

My best time hiking was 51:19 to the summit the old "record" was 55min and Mt Biking on Hostetter Rd yesterday afternoon I knocked about 4min off for a time of 53min or so.. (try 55:11 or 1:49 faster....)

Certainly not the 35min other cyclists claim but respectable for a 54yo fatman Embarassed

I made a map of the various trail and roads it is here
