Dan's Hiking Pages: Hikes in the San Gabriels and Beyond

  Hike Log


25 Years Hiking the San Gabriels Below is a log of most of various hikes I've done since 1993. I've hiked a lot in the years previous, but the records are not easily retrievable. *Hike numbers are from John Robinson's Trails of the Angeles: 100 Hikes in the San Gabriels (8th Edition, 2005) (The 9th Edition was released in 2013. The numbering has changed but I have not changed my numbering below).
