Diemer Trail in Chino Hills
Ontario and Bighorn Peaks
Follow along on my hike to Ontario Peak. You begin the hike at Icehouse Canyon trailhead, just off Mt Baldy Road. This trailhead is the gateway for several other hikes: The Three T’s Hike, Cucamonga Peak, and Icehouse Saddle. There is a small parking lot which begins to fill up by 6am. Hope this Hiking Guide helps you plan your visit to Icehouse Canyon and Ontario Peak.
12 Mile Run in Ladera Hills – Arroyo Trabuco Trail
I set out on the Arroyo Trabuco Trail, which is a 16 mile long trail along Aliso Creek in Ladera Ranch, CA. The trail terminates at O'neil Park, in Trabuco Canyon, within the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains. There are actually two trails, one along each side of the creek. Depending on how high the water level is, there are a few possible spots to cross it, and reach the other side of the trail. The alternative is to cross via the bridge at Crown Valley Parkway, or Oso Parkway.
2 Peaks in a Day – Thunder Mountain and Telegraph Peak
On a cool fall day I set out to hike to two peaks, in one day: Thunder Mountain, and Telegraph Peak. The Three T’s is a popular hike in the Angeles National Forest, near Mount Baldy. I would be hiking up Mount Baldy Rd. from Manker Flats, passing “the Notch,” and heading on to Thunder Mountain, before coming to the sign for the Three T’s Hike, in the Cucamonga Wilderness.
