DRIVING ROUTE 1

  • Go 1.6 miles to a dirt road on the left. Turn left. Note your odometer and go as follows:
  • At 1.0 mile, junction at a power line. Go straight.
  • At 5.6 miles, fork with 1N36 (closed) on the left. Keep straight.
  • At 7.8 miles, fork. Turn right.
  • At 7.9 miles, a difficult to see fork in a saddle. The right fork is closed by an earthen berm. Park here.

HIKING ROUTE 1

  • From the parking area (5560'), hike over the earthen berm and down the old road bed as it goes down through a saddle and then up to the old lookout site at the end of the road. The register is a rock pile on the left (west) as you approach the old foundation.

ALTERNATE ROUTES

1N34 is sometimes open from Cucamonga Canyon. This is a long 4WD road and can be very rough and sometimes impassable.

It is also possible to hike up the old 1N36 roadbed from the southeast. This is shorter that hiking in from Sierra Avenue.
