After hiking Thorn Point, I had some time and energy and wanted to increase my cardio and gain for the day. San Guillermo (HPS #146) was on the way back, a short hike starting at Pine Springs Campground. I parked near the restroom in the campground and wandered toward the start of the main ridge line. I didn't find the use trail until I was half way up the first rise. It was in decent shape and followed the main ridge south of the mountain, turning north to finish. The register cans were placed a little below the high point. Inside the cans was a 2-page print out of a hike from 2020 with signatures on the back of the pages. I put the pages in a plastic baggie, but a new register book is needed. I enjoyed the view north to Mount Pinos and Sawmill. Views were much nicer than I expected. Like Thorn Point, I had the entire mountain to myself.
