South Peak to Saddle Junction
Spring 2007
[ Back ]
PCT shortly after leaving Saddle Junction. See my pictures of Devils Slide Trail to see what that portion of the trail looks like.
South Ridge Trail coming "up" from Tahquitz Peak ends here
Little Tahquitz Valley junction
First glimpse of Palm Springs and Caramba Overlook
First glimpse of the Desert Divide. That's Lake Hemet in the background.

View of Andreas Canyon
The Desert Divide looking South
This is a really neat part of the trail along the crest of the Desert Divide
Looking down into Andreas Canyon
The trail
Looking South into Garner Valley
A broader view
An even broader view...
I found a nice little area to have my lunch
A rock cropping overlooking my rest stop
The trail awaiting me after my lunch has been consumed.
I turned around at this sharp turn to the South marked by this stump
Looking North from the point I turned around at
For some reason the trail looks much narrower and scarier going back
In some places the trail is nonexistent
In other places it is badly in need of repair
This is what you see when you look down from above Andreas Canyon. I try not to look down while moving. ...and yes that's all there is of the trail.
It's not too bad in some places
In many places it actually has an edge
Beautiful San Jacinto Mountains from the Southeast
