My name is Dan Simpson and I love to hike! Since I live in Azusa, California, at the mouth of the San Gabriel Canyon, the San Gabriel Mountains / Angeles National Forest is my primary hiking venue. Thus, the San Gabriels are the focus of this site.

My other favorite hiking areas are the Tahoe National Forest (Northern Calif.), where we've vacationed many summers since 1993, and the San Bernardino National Forest (Southern Calif.), where we've recreated a lot over the years.

So, Dan's Hiking Pages are an attempt to give you a glimpse into my hiking world and to share some of the things I've learned. Enjoy!

WINTER: Remember, as the weather turns cold, be particularly careful as you venture into the high country. Please don't become a news story. Read: Winter weather poses new risks for hikers.

Books - There are several good guide books for hiking in Southern California. Read my reviews.
