I could see the distant sprawl of beachburbia up one mountainside – a cluster of modern architecture that seemed to say, “We’re wealthy enough to build here, away from all you people. But feel free to borrow our view since you’ve made the climb.” Maybe I should have stayed at the pool.
The starting elevation at this trailhead is 6,760′ and over the course of two miles you will climb to the top of Mount Waterman at 8,038′. There are some cool rock formations on and near the summit so bring your scrambling shoes!
