Welcome to my hiking blog where I feature my adventures hiking Missouri and around the USA. Each post features YouTube hiking videos of me on the trail, photos, custom maps, and my trail review.
“Let’s go on a hike y’all.”
LA’s Most Difficult Hiking Trail | Echo Mountain via Rubio Canyon
Today I’m solo hiking the most difficult hiking trail in Los Angeles I’ve hiked, Echo Mountain via Rubio Canyon. AllTrails rates this trail as Difficult and they aren’t kidding because it’s basically a 1400 foot ascent straight up the mountain.
Hiking Vital Link Trail to Verdugo Peak | Relaxing Hiking Video
If you’ve ever wondered where to hike in Los Angeles or Burbank, let me introduce you to my favorite hiking trail in LA: Vital Link Trail to Verdugo Peak in Wildwood Canyon. This Burbank hiking trail is a toughy, but on a clear day you get gorgeous 360 views of the San Fernando Valley, Angeles National Forest, and even Downtown LA. It’s a steep hike, and for sure one of the hardest hikes in LA, in my opinion though, 100 percent worth it!
