Answer
shop the big names Like rei, dicks, sport chalet. Then go to walmart, big5 and sometimes gun shops or combo stores like Bass pro. Prices vary greatly so don't get taken for big bucks at an rei when you can get the same gear elsewhere for a lot less.

Southern California Weekend Backpacking?

Maddy D

I'm looking for a weekend hike, close to LA (3 hours or less away). Between 15 and 20 miles. If you know of anything let me know, and if you've hiked somewhere, tell me about it. Waterfalls are great, but not required. We've done both Mt Whitney (22 mi. in two and a half days) and the hot springs trail in Big Sur (20 mi. in two days). The hikers are a 46 year old female and her two daughters, 15 and 13, and possibly our 27 year old male cousin. (Cousin came to Big Sur, but not Whitney)

Let me know of anywhere you thing would be fun. Also, somewhere not too cold, like no snow. Our sleeping bags go down to 20 degrees i think)
