Best Restaurants Near Los Angeles Hiking Trails | Eater LA
"As an intermediate to advanced hike, trekking Mount Baldy is no easy affair. After a hard day on the trails, head to the Claremont location of Gus’s barbecue. The barbecue restaurant first opened in 1946 in South Pasadena before expanding to Claremont in 2018. Order the cast-iron cornbread, pulled pork, and glazed ribs, and charred jalapeño grits for a full feast as reward for finishing one of the area’s most challenging hikes. Barbecue combination platters are available and a good way to mix and match." - Rebecca Roland
