Sat 9/17 Alpine to Eagle Peak to La Posta

There was going to be a video with this but iMovie crashed on me at the end of my edit and I don't have the patience to do the whole thing again. Unfortunately I only took 2 pictures as everything else was video on my gopro. 

My friends and I were supposed to do some exploring out by Thing Valley on Saturday morning but one of them didnt show up for the ride and so we decided to add some miles.

Started in Alpine and headed up and over Viejas Grade, left on Oak Grove and out to the 3 Sisters Fall trailhead where we took 13S11 down to the back entrance for Cedar Creek Falls. Came across quite a few hikers who looked like they regretted their trail choice for the day and a couple who look like they mistook 13S11 for the actual 3 sister's trail head. Neither of us had ever been out this way before so it was pretty cool to see those canyons.

From there we headed up Eagle Peak road and out to Julian for some lunch. The place was packed so we grabbed some sandwiches at the corner market and then took off toward Laguna. Did some exploring and headed down Sunrise to 80. We headed to Thing Valley and did that loop before takin the 80 and Viejas Grade back to Alpine. 

The only casualty for the weekend was a squirrel that had bad timing on Eagle Peak.
