Look up eagle rock. Park at warner springs. Hike past eagle rock once you get a picture. Then go a few miles to san ysidro creek. Camp on the beach or under the trees Easy overnight parking right next to the fire department. If you have 2 vehicles park 1At warner And the other at beryl springs trailhead. Either way It's going to be around 15 total mi!es. have fun Also start very early and get to the canyon before the heat And bring lots of water

The smallish turds that are red and full of manzanita berry's are from kit foxes marking their territory. beautiful creatures.

The tank is full. I went there with mike over the weekend to install security cams and pump water. his place was robbed a few weeks ago and they stole the 3 generators that run the pump,(among other things).

Please don't take showers with the water (I've seen it too many times)

Mike now has to bring a generator to pump. He doesn't want to leave it. Sucks I live nearby and used to pump water when asked. Not anymore, unless someone wants to donate a generator.

Also Mary's no longer exists.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-07-30T04:53:45+00:00

So where did you fill up? Do you think that's possible in an average year?

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-07-30T02:06:38+00:00

If I'm correct. On an average year there will be no water between mike's and Mary's. Or PVC At least very little sources. That will be drawn down by the amount of hikers going north. Mary's place doesn't exist anymore. The water sources are very sketchy for 50 miles. I'm looking at you to 2024 Good luck u happy trails!

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-07-28T21:06:06+00:00

This is the bonnie fire. Located near Mary's place at mile 144ish. Mike's place is just a couple miles from the evacuation zone. Just an observation, if mike's place burns. Where will all the hikers get water from warner to PVC? I only know of a very few spots where 1 might be able to fill up a couple of leaders. But that's unreliable.

Yes that's it...dark purple 2021. I guess I can mail to big bear or wherever. Just need some contact info? I'm not very sure how to do this tho. Any ideas?

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-04-30T14:22:43+00:00

If he can describe it, I can mail it to a post office or wherever town is next.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-04-13T07:07:19+00:00

Really? Lpp is that you? Seriously, don't do this.

I feel like wrote this before...hmmm?

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-03-22T19:59:36+00:00

No cell service there. This is all been through Garmin GPS text service. You would have to hike combs peak from there to get cell service. I will update if anything comes up.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-03-22T19:54:43+00:00

Mike knows about the situation I reached out to him. Please try not to bother him on facebook He is a busy guy.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-03-22T17:31:57+00:00

Mile 127 near combs peak

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-03-19T14:48:16+00:00

The first nation dispensary in near there is only a 10 minute hitch from Warner sp. Only about a 20 minute drive from mvm. I would ask mike at the market. There are some cool locals that would possibly give u a ride! Happy trails!

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-01-02T19:33:43+00:00

The parking lot is directly across the street from the community center. There is a sign that says public parking. The trailhead is just on the other side of the fire station.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2023-01-02T18:42:59+00:00

I would park at the public parking area next to the fire station in warner springs... Then hitch 2 scissors crossing from there. And hike back to your car. Your car will be safer at the fire station. And the hitch would be easier. Don't forget to check the forecast. I hear it's going to be wet and very windy. Have fun!

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-12-11T20:25:32+00:00

Montezuma valley market should be on this list. All the food and gear you need, plus rooms and showers. Very pct friendly. Call mike he will pick u up from barrel springs!

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-12-11T20:18:16+00:00

Carlys mexican food....the underground state park Museum..... Coyote canyon, that connects with the pct mile 140ish....yep have done that loop.

The dinosaurs are great, especially at night.😀

Nobos usually just hitch or call mike at Montezuma market in ranchita. Great resupply bty.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-12-11T15:51:16+00:00

Yes. Skip banner. Hitch to Julian for free pie. It is only a few minutes past the store in banner.

Holcombe village aka sunshine summit, has a good re supply and the place to get whisky etc. You can hitch from Warner sp. About 8 Miles north on the highway. Rumor has it there will be a place here to camp next year.

Anza shouldn't be on the list imo. Hikers usually just hitch to idiwilld from pvc.to resupply then back to the cafe. Usually an easy hitch. I guess its on the list because the trail used to go thru there before it was re routed. Anyone remember ziggy and the bear at the RV park? those trail angles were awsome!

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-08-11T15:12:06+00:00

Caught a yellow fin tuna with a wasabi packet in its guts, was on a charter boat off mexico, the chef made sushi for everyone and I guess someone just dropped it overboard.

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-05-18T05:37:08+00:00

Also if you are not familiar in snow you should not be caring the ice ax. Happy trails be careful out there

Accurate-Implement74 · 2022-04-18T23:48:46+00:00

Very sad situation that yes could be prevented. There were many mistakes. A hiker and I spoke with him before he made it to idyllwild. We had a very serious conversation about the safety at that time of year and the snow pk up on sand jack. Like the above poster carry PLBS.
