I am heading up into the San Gabriel Mountains from Pasadena to Mount Baden Powell, Wrightwood, Cajon Pass and possibly through to Silverwood Lake Mission Creek to Cougar Crest Trail in Big Bear Lake approx 175 Miles of trail along the Arroyo Seco, Gabrielino, Silver Moccasin and Pacific Crest Trail's

This is a side project for gathering Drone Film short clips for dialing montage photography for the Sierra 500 Documentary. I will also be digging for more natural sounds with DJI Microphones capturing immersive sounds, gravel steps, tent stakes, breathing, morning, nights ect.

I am making up for not completing my winter hike through the San Gabriel Mountains from this 2024/2025 Year.

When timing your season is not on your side never give up. I will be posting on when I can from the trail ETTT...(Estimated Time To Trail) 1st week of September. This will be the final trek for the year of 2025.

See you next post..
