"If you're up for a challenge, this Los Angeles day hike is one of the best hikes in California. Rated as difficult, with a total ascent of nearly 4,000 feet (to a total elevation of 10,064 feet), the 14-mile trek takes around 8.5 hours but is dog-friendly and requires no permits or fees. If you're not already huffing and puffing due to the strain and altitude, the views stretching from the Mojave to the Pacific will surely take your breath away." - Travel + Leisure Editors
