Cactus to Clouds

This hike is definitely not for beginner hikers! This hike is for well experienced hikers! The plan is to do 22 miles this day. We will start at sea level & hike up to Mt Jacinto. Water is available 10 miles up. From there it's another 6 miles up to the peak. Once we reach the peak we'll take a good break. We will then hike back down to the tram 6 miles. We will take the tram down. Where the tram drops us off, it will still be 6 miles from the trailhead. We will drive back down to trailhead from there. I am posting this hike early to give everyone enough preparation time to build up our cardio! I advise everyone to use a sauna & do more cardio to prepare for the hike. This hike will be subject to day of event change if needed due to extreme heat. I recommend bringing more than enough water for the 1st 10 miles, 3-5 Ltrs, electrolytes (powder, cliff chew bloks, or tablets). Bring enough food 1.5-2 meals. There is food available at the tram station when we will decend. L citrulline or L arginine (found in pre workout drinks) help for high elevations, as well as peanuts. They increase nitric oxide levels. Bring trekking poles if you prefer to use.
