Hey Mike
Me too.  First hill as the sun rises above Angel Mountain, and Lake
Henshaw. Looks just like home.
Wait!  That is home!

> Warners has two trailheads, one north of town and one south both on 79. 
> Most people don't hike the loop in between.
> On the south the best place to park is west of 79 where the mobile

> For a little added assurance, walk into the classroom and ask for Myrtle

> Ask her what part of the huge space would be best to park for a few
> days.
> Across the street at the school I hear your car can get locked in.

> North Warners trailhead?  Dirt area on the road just north of the
> trailhead.

> Are you planning on coming down soon?
