These Lower and HPS Peaks in Santa Ana Mtns are short distance hikes<br />
from the Main Divide Truck Trail, provided that the dirt roads are open<br />
to motor vehicles. The driving will require clearance and possibly 4WD.<br />
If the Truck Trail is closed to motor vehicles, then we will hike only Bald<br />
and Bedford, 15 miles RT, 2800’ gain. Starting in Silverado Canyon,<br />
a deep trench with a creek cutting through its center. As the dirt trail<br />
climbs out of the canyon and ascends the mountain, the route offers<br />
great vistas the entire way. On clear days, the peaks have nice views of the<br />
Inland Valley and the surrounding higher mountain ranges. Socializing<br />
Snack Hour: After hike, join leaders at the rustic Silverado Café (28272<br />
Silverado Canyon Road, 3 miles down the road from the trailhead). Email<br />
mbmertz@aol.com to sign up and get time and driving info.<br />
