I got into climbing partially because hiking bored the hell outta me.
There should be a hike where you meet various wizards and shit along the way, and they issue you challenges on your QUEST. You can always just walk past them or shoot them, but that's kinda cheating.

Shooting is cheating? Dang. I've been doing it wrong for all these years... _________________ Hiking? Aw, gee, do I have to?

Let's go one better Ze, let's go Baldy, West Baldy, Iron, Baden Powell, Wright Mountain, Dawson Peak and Harwood and call it a day.
I'm in for any of that. Need two weeks to train for it though.
Let me know.

How about this:
Park at Vincent Gap
Descend East Fork until you reach Vincent Gulch / Prairie Fork
Ascend Pine Mt Ridge to Pine
Head over to Dawson
Descend Dawson Trail and down Fish Fork to Fish Fork campground.
Descend to Iron Fork.
Ascend S,SE ridges to Ross Mt.
Ascend to Baden Powell.
Down to Vincent Gap _________________ http://socalhikes.com/

Why would we have to sh*t along the way? Would this be sorta like marking our territory? _________________ There is no place for me in this world, Chanchito, I don't belong out there and I don't belong here.

We could park one car in Wrightwood, one at the Vincent Gap. Go up the trail in Wrightwood that leads to the PCT, Grab Wright Mtn, Pine, Dawson, Baldy, West Baldy, Iron, then down to the narrows cross over ascend either Ross Mnt ridge and Baden-Powell or go west up South Mt Hawkins Ridge to Hawkins, Throop, Mt Burnham, then Baden Powell and down.
Now that's a day, either way I'm in.
Are you coming to the Bridge this Sat? We can talk about it there.

That's what happens when you make plans to go to a bridge to "Nowhere"
You end up going everywhere - or dreaming of it as "EnFuego" has indicated.
I like that thread, AlanK and Rick M are capable from what I've seen of their past posts.
Did Travis ever make the 13 peaks or did he quit at 11 and call it a day?
What's the list of the 13 - Sugarloaf, Ontario, Big Horn, Cucamonga, Etiwanda, Timber, Telegraph, Thunder,Harwood, Dawson, Pine, Baldy, West Badly? is my guess

This hike sounds sick! Let's do that instead of Bridge to Nowhere, I've done the bridge a billion times... this would be sweet! _________________ Zach
I'm up for a day of hell. Lets do it. In late March though. I got some secret stuff going on until first weekend in March. This weekend hike is jsut a quickie to the bridge. I need to be back by 3-4'ish.

I was with you except for the Baden Powell part. I think in that order would make me take a dirt nap!
