In the mountains of San Gabriel, overlooking the lowland vines and fruit groves, Mother Nature is most ruggedly, thornily savage. – John Muir
Today marks one week since we set out on Expedition Orange. To date we’ve traversed over 80 miles of the entire greater Los Angeles metropolitan area. This morning we begin our trek north to the Cajon Pass, a narrow mountain pass that runs between the San Gabriel and San Bernadino Mountains just north of San Bernadino. Once we clear the pass we will make our way northeast toward Las Vegas. Soon we will be trading in LA traffic for desolate Mojave roads.
