Heaton Flats was the campsite that turned me into the camper I am. I went in November 2011. The weather was freezing! I knew nothing about camping! But I fell in love with the tall trees, the stream filled with gold prospectors, and the hike to get to the spot. Continue reading

A few weeks ago, we trekked 5 miles into The Narrows, a well-known gold panning spot in the Angeles National Forest back in the San Gabriel mountains. The hike out wasn’t bad. We left at 7:00 AM so the air was still cool, shade in our favor. We arrived around 9:00 AM a little winded but happy to be at our temporary home for the weekend. Coming back was a different story!

I knew my body was ready to take on this challenge and let me tell you- Continue reading

Two weeks ago, we ventured off into one of my favorite spots- the San Gabriel mountains- where we did a night hike about 3 miles in to a cool little spot where we panned for gold and had a relaxing weekend! I love night hikes because you can only see what’s in front of you- not what’s ahead! Continue reading
