[pct-l] Heights // North of Scissors Crossing /// Re: Pct-L Digest, Vol 99, Issue 16

Actually, there was a narrow part of the trail, where there was quite a drop-off to the west. It was near the highest point of the trail through the San Felipe Hills. I think that this segment of the trail has been widened since I hiked it, so that dropoff isn't as noticeable now.

The comment below is the latest in a series following on from a suggestion that there was a vertigo-inducing stretch in the San Felipe Hills.  Several people have commented that they don’t recall such a place.

I suggest that the original poster was thinking of the San Jacintos, not the San Felipe Hills, and in particular the section near Apache Peak.  I believe it has been subject to fire closure at some point since then.  As accurately stated below, that would be north of Warner Springs.
