Summit Ridge & Valley Trails
Hiking started as a weekend escape and quickly turned into a core discipline. Ascending steep grades across the San Gabriels and Angeles National Forest teaches patience, pacing, and sharp focus under pressure.
Every summit reached reinforces the same principles I bring to life and work: thorough preparation, steady momentum, and absolute respect for the terrain ahead.
