Marion Mountain Trail to Mt San Jacinto
May 2007
[ Back ]
Trailhead - Maybe it's 5 1/4 if you know how to fly. It's actually 7 miles. Is there a shortcut I don't know about? ;-)
The trail is steep most of the way and has loose sand and pine needles in many places - be careful. Of course, enemy number 1 is - the pine cone.
Debris like this often litters the trail and has caused it to be rerouted in many places.
PCT heads north here towards Fuller Ridge. That's Deer Springs Trail to the right - towards the peak.
These bushes can be found all over the San Jacinto Mountains - watch out for their thorns.
