La Verne Peak (2,101′)

Quick Stats: 3.2 Miles & 614′ gain.

This isn’t a peak as much as it is a bump, but it was the best I could do this day. I had intended to set out on a pretty fun adventure going up Falling Rock Canyon to Sugarloaf Peak, then climbing up to Ontario Peak from there, and then descending to Icehouse Canyon.

However when I woke up in the morning my head wasn’t right. Dealing with a major depressive episode, my day is sometimes determined when I wake up, and it can be very hard to change that without outside influence. I ended up sitting in my car at the trail head for a long time until I got lunch with my girlfriend Madi, and then we went on a short couple mile hike to La Verne Peak. I wouldn’t even write about it if it wasn’t on Peakbagger, but since it is you’re getting a little blurb about me and my mental health.
