Hike #35: Mt Yale & Mt Harvard, San Gabriel Mountains (Angeles NF), CA

Visit Date: 6/5/21.

Hiking Mt Yale & Mt Harvard: San Gabriel Mountains (Angeles National Forest), CA.

Mt Yale is easy to miss when ascending Mt Wilson Toll Rd. The climb to Mt Wilson is much easier when avoiding Mt Yale as well. I decided to descend to it from Mt Wilson and to form a day hiking loop to include Mt Yale and Mt Harvard. This allowed me to gain these two summits which were new to me. When leaving Mt Wilson Toll Rd below Mt Yale, a use trail follows Harvard Ridge to the top of the peaks. Once again, here is an example of a lightly visited hiking area in the middle of a heavily populated region of California.
