BEHIND THE SCENES ... Many areas you hike have group size limits , which you need to be aware of. All groups shown in the Virtual albums may appear to hike together, when in fact they do not. *sorry, photographer editing illusion* Groups are broken down into Fast-Medium-and-Slower hikers, with designated regrouping points along the way for safety purposes. Educate yourself on the rules directly with the US Forest Service and National Park Service. Don't assume - Get the facts first.

10/29/2005 Pacific Crest Trail - Mt Center area California
26 Sierra San Gorgonio members hiked with me on my last group hike from my stay in California. 11 miles on the Pacific Coast Trail near Mountain Center (by Idyllwild), with an easy 800ft elevation change. Weather was cool, views for miles, and the company was great. (photos by Nunya)
