Now that SoCal Mike isn't going to make it, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to "lead" a hike to Sugarloaf Peak on Saturday morning.
This is what Mike had to say about the hike:
'The trailhead is in the Blue Jay campground next door to where we are staying. Great hike, not very difficult and one of the few hikes in the CNF in this area that has large meadows--pretty unique.'
It would mean you would have to look up the hike and have some idea where you are going.
I'd love to do it myself but I feel like I should be around to help things along at base camp when people arrive.
