Lost Horse Mountain

Lost Horse Mountain & other HPS & LPC Peaks in Joshua Tree

Nice 4.5 mile winter hike with a few inches of fresh snow still on the ridge.  Left the loop trail after it passed the intersection for the Lost Horse Mine, then up to a saddle.  At the saddle, before the trail begins to descend again, leave the trail to the NW and head up the ridge to the summit.
