- Ever wanted to hike Southern California's tallest mountain? Join me as I show you how to climb Mount San Gorgonio in the San Bernadino Mountains and National Forest. Starting at Vivian Creek Trailhead it took us 4:20 hr to make it to the peak and summit of San Gorgonio Mountain. The hike is a strenuous 17.5-mile round trip hike with an elevation gain of over 12,000 feet, around 6,000 up and down in one day.
Camping is also an option but would take two days to reach the summit, I recommend you camp at High Creek camp and make the push to the summit the next day. Also please make sure you leave no trace when using this public land. Take all your trash out and pick up any you see laying about.
I shot this video on Sony's new ZV1vlogging camera: amzn.to/2XO7B90

Summer of 1991 a 12 year old Hispanic child Jared Negrete went missing at this location can't imagine the fear because he went through, and the last haunting image he took before 🙏❤️ there's other justice in this world besides the law your hiking video reminded me of his story
Thank you for sharing. 4 hrs going up💪
Enjoy!!
Fabulous! I almost wish i lived to America. I will have settle for Scafell Pike for now.
Where is Scafell Pike?
Wow, gorgeous views!! Having been born and raised in LA county I'm sad to say I did not seek out adventures like this. Since moving to the Pacific Northwest 7 years ago my passion for the great outdoors has blossomed! I will absolutely do this climb next chance I get to visit LA. Thank you for the inspiration to enjoy and protect our beautiful outdoor spaces!
It’s ok Kristen, it’s hard to escape LA. The PNW is unrivaled in its natural beauty, I’m glad you get to enjoy it up there. Definitely do this hike when you come back though :)
Looking good. This makes me want to get out today 🙂
Thank you! I’m ready for another climb too
What an amazing place, just stunning! Very cool that u have such a beautiful place to go to near to your home. Cheers from Brazil 😀
Obrigado Glenda! I have so much gratitude for our national forests and wild places. Hope all is well in Brazil 🇧🇷
It is the tallest mountain in England situated in the lake district. Its a good climb. I watched your Lake district tour and thought the wire bridges around the old slate quarry were something else. I visit the Lakes a lot and Northumberland which is as you know really beautiful. England is amazing its just small. You have even visited my home town of Leeds, which i thought was great as we do not get many American Adventurers in our industrious city. I am now a massive fan of your travel videos and also take inspiration from Carrie. keep up the good work.
Aww thank you Harriet! I actually LOVED LEEDS and the Lake District, those two as well as Northumberland were my favorite spots so far in England. Hope to get back one day soon.
I love the idea of the “micro-adventure” and the line you end the video with. Happy trails!
Awesome experience! Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼
Thank you for tuning in Rosemary! Hope all is well.
Much needed video!!!! Hopeful for travel and adventure soon!! Thank you 🙏
Thank you Heidi!
Wow, enjoyed the hike, thanks
Thank you for watching 🙏🏼
Thanks for such an awesome channel! It's like fresh air itself. Inspiring. (Moving to California, for sure)
Thank you Alex.. For putting out this type of wonderful video content ..So much negatve content thats shoved in your face put out by news and social media with whats going on in the world today.. Its great to see videos like this .And just for a little while it took my mind away from things and to say that things are gonna be OK... THANK YOU..
Thanks Christopher! All will be well again, just need to make some positive changes first 👏🏼👏🏼
Alex: hikes 9 miles uphill in 4 hours
Also Alex: "what a perfect little micro-adventure"
Hahaha what a beast, dude. Your consistent home workouts have paid off. Truly an inspiration. I'm a bit of a hiking junkie myself, but I've never gone even close to 18 miles in a day. I hope to be half as fit as you when I hit my 30s.
Bro, I'm 62 and doing 18, 19 miles with a 35lb pack here in the San Gabriels, get up, get outside and get movin' brother, life's too short.
alex: *uploads new vid
me 30sec later: 👀
Appreciate the support Jakob!
Nice man glad too see you back out there!
Thanks Kai! More videos coming soon. Hoping to get back to at least once a week. Cheers
Sweet my dude!
Excellent vid!
eXplorer thank you 🙏🏼
Have you seen my Mountain biking series??
Definitely on our list if we ever (hopefully) come back west. We traveled from LA to Joshua Tree and saw Gorgonio and Jacinto from atop Eureka Peak and Keys View. Amazing to see. If you head out east, make sure you climb Katahdin in Maine.
Wow! I want to be here. This is such a wonderful place for an adventure. Thank you for this awesome trip :)
Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for today’s video :)
@@AlexanderAyling Yes, of course :)
So nice to have a stunning adventure. Yes hug a tree. 🌲🤗
We too have been enjoying the nature in our backyard in the Shuswap, BC Canada 🇨🇦 so thankful for outdoor space. 🏞️
Hope you, Carrie and Lanka 🐾 are doing well.
It's Saturday morning and kexp.org at 9am ... Like now has an amazing Reggie show, positive vibrations with Kidd Hopps. I know you would enjoy it 😊
♥️🇨🇦
Great job! I need to do it on my next trip to LA
It’s a hard day hike but well worth it. You can also camp at a few stops along the way and make it a two day trip. :).
Bravo for doing another climb! Alex, u were very close to where we live in San Bdno! You mentioned us too! Can’t believe there’s still snow!! Say hi to Carrie
Thank you Vita Maria! You gotta give Gorgonio a climb too it’s in your backyard :)
Its funny how everyone was using the term "flatten the curve" during the first few months of the pandemic. Now you never hear that phrase anymore.
Love how they so easily accept it being LEGAL to hike outdoors. Hahahahahaahahahahaha
Cool
Thank you 🙏🏼
You should be hiking in the Alps or Dolomites some time.
Much better view on the summit :)
It’s on my life bucket list! I love the Alps. I’ve cycled toured the Pyrenees before, would love to do that in the Alps
4 hours 20 one way isn't bad at all
Did you ever flatten that curve you were talking about in the beginning of the video?
hey you a canadian - howd you sneak into america?
I’m a Californian born and raised. Not that it matters though...
@@AlexanderAyling you looked like you were in burnaby in the other video - ah ok. so not a canadian citizen..
