Synopsis

Now in its 7th edition, this book is the definitive guide to hiking in the San Gabriel Mountains, only an hour or two from Los Angeles. Covering nearly every major trail in these mountains, this book describes 100 hikes, from short, popular hikes to longer, backcountry treks. These remarkable mountains are only a short distance from the dense population of Los Angeles, yet they offer tremendous opportunities for a true wilderness experience. Includes a separate, fold-out map showing all the trails. Find out why this book has become the "bible" for hiking the San Gabriels.

Author John Robinson has been hiking the San Gabriels for over 30 years and is considered to be the foremost expert on the trails of these mountains.

About the Author:

Author John Robinson has been hiking the San Gabriels for over 30 years and is considered to be the foremost expert on the trails of these mountains. He wrote the first edition of Trails of the Angeles in 1971, and soon followed with San Bernadino Mountain Trails, in addition to three High Sierra hiking guides and five books on Southern California mountain history and lore.

For this 8th edition he's been joined by seasoned hiker (and airline pilot) Doug Christiansen, who updated the book to reflect the latest trail conditions.
