Best Day on San Jacinto EVER!

[halhiker]

Great report. Love the fine photos. We camped Tuesday 6/2/09 night at RV but got scared off by lightning at Wellman Divide. Standing on the Peak in a lightning storm didn't seem like a good idea. Glad you enjoyed it and lived to tell about it. SanJack

I was also a little concerned about the lightning. It was very close right when it started to hail but it got better. It was very windy near the top just below the last switchback but at the top it was very calm. I figured I'd keep going and just see how it went. Thankfully, it went wonderfully.

Fabulous trip report and pictures, thanks I got good chills reading it.

I'm glad to see that the San Jacinto bunk bed and breakfast is now stocked with suitable anesthetic beverages.

I need to remember to always carry Vodka. Firestarter, antiseptic, sleep aid and mixes well with Tang. I don't know if I can count on it being in the Survival Box the next time I get there.

Looks like a really good hike Hal.
