Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 жов 2024
- My first solo over night trip from Mill Creek Summit to Mount Pacifico campground. This hike is 6 miles one way, that makes it a 12 mile round trip; 2200' elevation gain. On the summit of Mt. Pacifico you are at 7124' and you can see panoramas over Antelope Valley and the Mojave Desert.
It is said that there is a all year spring on the summit, but i couldn't find it. So please if you know where it located, can you please message me, write a comment, take me there, or show me. I really would like to know because it was drag carrying water up there.
All in all this was a fun trip for me. sorry for the shaky camera, I plan on improving as I continue making videos.
And also if you wish to join me on my next trip or like to have me join yours. Please feel free to message me. I primarily hike the the San Gabriels (fyi)
this trail is "Hike 56" from a book called
'100 Hikes in the San Gabriels - Trails of the Angeles' by John W. Robinson.
And also I mentioned a fellow youtuber, which who gave me inspiration to make a video

As a rule of thumb, Moss does not ALWAYS grow on the north side of trees. In other words, don't rely on it. Enjoyed the hike... Keep em' coming.
Very nice my hubby and I are hiking since last year now he wants to do what you did I'm a lil scare but I love to be with him ! We hope to see more videos of you ! God bless
ill be making more videos soon when i go back out there. its not scary, just have him start off a short over night hike in a area thats well known to you guys.
nice looking area to hike . its nice to see other videos from fellow Antelope valley hikers . my friend just hiked in that area last month I think October maybe oh and pharro has some great videos I get to hike with them pn Mt Baden Powell camp out it was great . thanks for the great video.
Nice to hear you enjoyed. I've camped out with pharroah out in Glenn camp one night. Great guy and really knowledgeable in these mountains. I'm planning a 3 day winter trip in January, I'm planning on making a video for that as well. Thanks for your comment!
Bonito Cerro 👌👏👏. La d11. Zona. Ay muy sercas. Aveses me doy unas vueltas
Very nice video, I enjoyed hiking along with you. I am an old timer and have hiked most of the trails in the San Gabriel's, San Gorgonio, San Jacinto, and Sierra trails. I started hiking in 1946 with the Boy Scouts and continued for many years. Love to see your camping spot and relaxing with a couple cans of beer over a camp fire after a long hike, same as I did every time I camped out. Thank you for posting this enjoyable video !!
Yup, there's nothing else like having a few cold ones by a camp fire! Thank you for enjoying my trip. It was my first time out there alone, and I was relatively new to backpacking. You should check out my other videos, this year I have big trips planned. As well as a man that's also on youtube named Pharroah. He goes on trips all the time, you will enjoy his videos too.
+ManFrom1992 Over half of mike hikes have been solo, I guess I love being alone in the wilderness, because I really get into meditation and clear thinking with no distractions. I enjoy hiking with friends too, but it is more like a spiritual experience when solo hiking. One hike in 1980 on the John Muir trail I spent 10 days alone, and I shall never forget that amazing trip !!
thanks, going to try it in a couple of weeks.
really nice video. might try it over the weekend since I'll be in the area. from mill summit I might go up the PCT until it turns left along Mt Gleason rd then traverse across the ridges and canyons for a good day hike. But now Mt Pacifico looks good too!
That was very cool. Pharraoh also gave me the bug to start backpacking again. I hope to see you on the trails!
much respect. Great video and great job!
Nice trip!
The springs are east of the summit, on the PCT. When we were there several years ago, the larger one crossed the trail as a small creek, with the spring itself upslope in dense brush.
Ahh I see, so if I stayed on the pct heading east and skip the junction (the truck trail) that leads you to the peak, I would see the spring? I hope I made sense..
Yes, just keep going on the PCT.
My GPS recorded the location of the big spring as lat="+34.380706446" lon="-118.027246557". The PCT is open there, so it should be easy to find the spot.
We were there before the Station Fire or the recent drought, so I don't know exactly what it's like now. But there was a section of dense brush with a nice little stream going right across the trail. You couldn't miss it.
I think that was pretty cool of you to just up and go for it. I subbed cuz this takes heart. That and the fact that you skated from Camp Glenn, took a spill and walked it off like a champ. There's some mines and stuff I want to go check out on that side Angeles off the 14 I believe. Anyways, nice trip.
Power Courage and Wisdom thank I appreciate it!!! You should see the adventures that are off camera, I broke my leg cliff diving out near lake arrowhead. I believe I made a video that showcasing the old mines off of the 14 freeway
Thanks for watching, I'll be posting a new one soon
Julian Guevara - hit me up if you ever want to go locally in Azusa to either Forks. I'm hurt from Jiu-Jitsu right now but I can do small stuff and could camp overnight type deal. You look like good people and a family man just like me. Take care of dude and I hope we see us sometime. You can see me in pharraohs video of the meet up at Little Jimmy camp couple weeks back. Tony
I have been waiting anxiously for another hiking video dude. What's up dude?
I just had a child... I haven't had time to get out there. There will be one hopefully soon
Just uploaded another hiking video... Check it out!
Great vid. Nothing like a solo to equalize and get back to you and Mother Earth.What camera are you using and what editing software?I'm having a hard time with either to big of video files from my iPhone, and then losing quality during file conversion so that Windows Movie Maker can open the file. WMM doesn't like MP4 files.
He'll yeah.... I know that area by memory. ..I have hunted deer for 15 yrs.. and I'm 30.... Yeah I know where the creek at.. But all depending on the weather. .
Oh, and soundtrack maybe?????
Are those burn areas? That's alot of poodle dog brush. (I think that's what it's called) worse than poison ivy
Yeah there was a fire here a few years back
how long on average would you say it takes to get up there from the angels hwy?
Nice keep hiking let me know when you wanna do mt.lowe campground
sounds good man, ive never been to mt.lowe campground... you gotta show me around haha
Lets get another trip together man
on the real. there is a old gold mine that i want to go explore. lets do it at the end of February
For this video I used the canon 60d. And I just put it together on windows movie maker haha. But in order for me to edit it in windows I had convert it. I forgot what format I had to convert it to.
My newer videos tho are filmed and edited stray on and from my iPhone6! I found it to be much easier. Check out my recent videos and compare the quality
Forgot your headlamp and flashlight?, and no fuel for your stove????? WOW.
It happens. I can do without... Made my trip interesting.
Great video. When was that? I wanna go up in the San Gorgornio mtns during the winter and camp in the dry or dollar lake area. I've heard it's amazing. I've been up there in summer a couple times already so I'm semi familiar with the trails and route. I think it would require snow shoes tho. Merry xmas. I admire your appreciation for natural beauty.
couldn't get out tonight, too many to edit, need to catch up. So, watching others is the next best thing. cheers

+Ramon Lerma I can't remember. But it took me about 3 to 4 hrs. I was out of shape and had a heavy pack. I'm sure it can be done in a short amount of time now.
But hey you won't know for sure untill you try it for your self
