This is a wonderful spot for a break after all of the hard work of the previous 5 miles. Great day. It is often referred to as Saddleback which refers to the skyline profile formed between it and nearby Modjeska Peak. Just park and walk over It was a fun and easy trail! Gate is open for off-road vehicles.
The cabins here are all privately owned and maintained in much the same spirit as the cabins in The namesake of Holy Jim Canyon received his name for his prodigiously dirty vocabulary. It is also a very difficult hike, with 15 miles of distance during which you will lose and gain 4,000′ of elevation. Super cool to see everyone enjoying the beautiful day.
I’ll for sure be back, light traffic on a Tuesday afternoon.Pretty easy on the main trail, a stock GX460 can handle very well.
So, the up-and-back round trip is going to take a while. . A bit hazy so we couldn't see the ocean. It’s reopened!Tried to go today to four wheel. The climb up was long and possibly warm, and the descent will be nearly as taxing. It was one of the last grizzly bears in the state.The trail will follow the creek bed as it bends to the left toward Holy Jim Falls. It is the centerpiece for the prominent Santa Ana mountain range dividing the coastal communities from the Inland Empire. However, if you are up for the challenge and in the mood for adventure, you will find that this hike disappoints neither in the views nor the adventure categories.Starting at the dirt lot in front of the Holy Jim Trailhead, park your car, display your Adventure Pass, and proceed north up the dirt road in the direction of a number of cabins.
Parking lot and truck trail up to peak open as of 6/25.Parking area at the visitor’s center is barricaded as of 06/11/2020, so there is nowhere to park. The nearest campground for car camping is at O'Neil Regional Park at the Arroyo Campground.
from Holy Jim Trail - Main Divide Rd - Trabucco), so be one the look out for mountain bikers. But Catalina was peaking out over the haze. ThAt sunset was phenomenalDrove past Maple Springs Truck Trail gate entrance...4 miles (could’ve driven another 1.6 miles to last avail parking area)... highly suggest AWD vehicle...hiked up MSTT to Main Divide to peak.
Jon B - You can park along the dirt road if the dirt parking "lot" at the trailhead is full. From this point, you will leave the shelter of Holy Jim Canyon behind for a gradually expanding view over coastal Southern California.You will encounter one of the toughest stretches of climbing during the next .6 mile as you follow Main Divide Road up the shoulder of Santiago Peak.
Following a good rain, you will likely encounter Pacific salamanders making their slow, steady, mindless ways to some unknown destination.
This is a difficult hike and will take some time. Depending on the time of year, the creek will flow with water cascading down the south slope of Santiago Peak from a nearby spring. Scott is an L.A. native and San Diego transplant who pulls every trick in the book to get out on the trail. All you need for the trail is some clearance because some parts are super rocky!
With a slight pang, you will leave the cool, creek-side shade to enter sun-baked slopes carpeted in chaparral. These experiences are best for hiking trails in Santiago: Andes Day Volcano 8K - Cajón del Maipo; Solar Eclipse Festival in Southern Chile (Dec 2020 Special!)
Right off the bat, you will be treated to a view of the peak, which is now tantalizingly close in linear distance but still 6.2 hiking miles and 3,500 vertical feet away.For the next 2.3 miles, you will diligently make your way along the western wall of Holy Jim Canyon. These structures also make it difficult to gain a 360 degree view from any one spot. The trail is pretty well-traveled and easy to follow. Modjeska Peak, at 5,499 feet, is the lower peak in Saddleback Mountain. There are various fire roads that approach the peak from all directions, and some more inviting trails that make it nearly to the summit as well. It’s difficult to identify where the actual summit is. You need to be careful and take your time driving because it’s such a narrow trail, you come drivers coming down.
Left caked in dust, ended up taking the trail all the way to the highest peak radio towers.
FYI for those attempting to 4x4Sedan couldn’t go up the dirt road so we started at the bottom of Maple trail.
Cross the rocky patch after the spring and commence your climb up the northern reaches of Holy Jim Canyon on the approach to Main Divide Road.Before you reach Main Divide Road, you will have the pleasure of dropping into a ravine that is densely wooded with bigleaf maple, canyon live oak, and bigcone Douglas fir. The trail is primarily used for hiking and ohv/off road driving.
And all along, one of the most spectacular hikes in SoCal has sat there right under our very noses. High clearance vehicles are recommended.
There’s lots of bikers and some hikers so watch your speed. The highest peak (and other peak in Saddleback Mountain) is Santiago Peak. Looking north and east at the Three Saints On views alone, the hike up to Santiago Peak via Holy Jim Canyon can be considered the premier hike in Orange County. Santiago Peak via Maple Springs is a 15.3 kilometer lightly trafficked out and back trail located near Silverado, California that features a great forest setting and is rated as moderate. A lot of dirt when no rain.Trail has a lot of traffic. You will have to walk around the complex to get a full appreciation of the view.However, no matter what direction you look in, you will be guaranteed an eye-full.
It's still under the fire closure, but it's also an open question regarding what condition the trail will be in after this next round of rains.
