To reach San Emigdio (HPS #97), I drove up Forest Road 9N34. The dirt road was in pretty good shape, but had a few deep ruts. I parked just below the summit of San Emigdio. I passed one truck on the road that was loaded with short logs. The driver was hard at work on some downed trees with a chainsaw. He looked like a private citizen not working in an official capacity. The hike was on a faint use trail to a rather plain flat summit. I'm not sure why I bothered taking my pack but I did. There was a pair of red register cans, but no marks found. Another summit with limited views due to trees. Peak five was done for the day. On to Brush Mountain.
