Oak Grove Trail Hike

Attempted to hike to the top of the Pine Valley Mountains, with Allison, on Friday, October 16th. The hike to the top is three miles. We began at 10:15 at an elevation of 6500' and hiked two miles to an elevation of 8500'. Running out of water and still having a mile and 1500' feet to go, we headed back down. We arrived back at the Explorer at 2:00 . We met one other hiker who was hiking from Oak Grove, over the top, and ending in Pine Valley. This is the hike Marty, Pat and I did in 2003.
