but the view! Wow! In practically all directions, it was just incredible. On a clear day, I read, you can see Catalina! Now, we've seen Catalina from the top of Saddleback Mountain - but all the way from Big Bear. I can see the direction it would be - but it was overcast with a morning marine layer.
We now need to go visit all the fire watch towers in the area as well as drive from the bottom of the mountain near the 18 all the way up to Big Bear City without going on a regular road. I think maybe next weekend if we can get away with it.
Such fun!
Got a little bit of hiking in today as well. Yay Jeep!

Have you done Clark's grade? Did you visit the Morton Peak lookout?
