Verdugo Mountain

Verdugo Mountain via Hostetter Fire Road

A lunchtime hike to Verdugo Mountain using the Hostetter Fire Road. I've made several other trips here but weather has typically been overcast. There's some shade on the hike but not enough for summer hiking. Suggested to hike in late fall/winter, and spring. Especially fun would be after a rainfall to see the multiple streams or during the spring with wildflowers and that short season of green in LA.
