Los Piños Mountain Trip Report
4,805 ft
The hike began around dawn with the temperature in the thirties by my estimation.
Excellent vertical progress resulted in a one hour time to the summit that included
a microwave relay facility within a fenced area.
The highest point was a boulder just north of the fenced area - and I ate my snack
there while enjoying a gorgeous day in late Fall San Diego County. Corte Madera
was just to the northwest and some 200 feet lower.
On descent along the jeep trail I picked up a sheet of ice from one of many ponds
of water in the road - evidently it was below freezing the previous night.
