SoCal Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge

Congratulations to challenger Natalie for finishing the SoCal challenge with her hike up Mount Baldy!

Buck List Hike – Mount Baldy At 10,000 elevation and a name like Devil's Backbone, this one was intimidating. It was a challenge but doable. It took me a while to conquer the last 1/2 m

Kudos to challenger Danica and her friends form their summit of Cucamonga Peak!

Cucamonga Peak 2/6 Went with a group of 4 for this hike. Was an amazing hike. We got a little lost at the top but tbh that’s on us we missed a turn off and it was easy enough to

We’re excited to announce a brand-new achievement for Six-Pack of Peaks Challengers – the Three Saints Badge! This badge celebrates your summits of Southern California’s most iconic high peaks:

Mount San Antonio (Mt Baldy) – 10,064 ft
Mount San Jacinto – 10,834 ft
San Gorgonio Mountain – 11,503 ft

These three legendary peaks – affectionately known as the “Three Saints” – are the tallest in SoCal and represent the ultimate alpine hiking trifecta for any challenger.

I'm going to be sharing my guides to the peaks of the SoCal Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge. First up? Sitton Peak.

At 3,273 feet above sea level, Sitton Peak has commanding 360 degree views of the Cleveland National Forest. On clear days, you can see the ocean and even Catalina Island. The elevation gain and distance makes this a good intermediate level hike.

🥾Distance: 10 miles
⏱ Time: ~4 hours
📈 Difficulty: Moderate
🪜Elevation gain: 2,150 feet
🐶 Dogs: OK
⛰ Summit: 3,273'
