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.
Please report any corrections or changes to the
Mountain Records Chair.
