Up early. Hiked to Fobes Ranch Trail where we decided to hike to a spring for water. Missed the spring trail. Apparently Fobes no longer wanted to share the spring as a branch camouflaged the trail. Hiked down into private Fobes land, found a small stream. Hike up through a ranch road, found the spring and finally our way back to our packs.
Then we went up Spitler Peak, the toughest climb in the San Jacintos. Found a magical campsite in a burnt forest just off the peak. Watched Palm Springs bustle from above.
