My brother and I hiked through Lost Valley about 20 years ago. We hiked out of Warner Hot Springs (Closed Now ) long story. We hiked from the Hwy where the PCT intersects and headed North East. Saw no one else. Oak shade canopy a long much of the trail. Running water in the local creeklets. We went in the Winter. First saw Lost Valley from a top the Hot Springs Mountian look out tower and on USGS topo maps. Hot Springs Mountian is the tallest peak in San Diego County. Drove my old truck almost to the top! Lost Valley is truely a remote part of Riverside county. Bring water if no recent rains. Watch for deer ticks in the spring time.

Shhhhhhh......... smile I don't want this area to become 'popular'. I'm always bummed when I see an article about a little-known or pristine area. My girlfriend and I have spent quite a bit of time here, there are springs, HUGE cottonwoods, mountain lion and bobcat tracks everywhere.....

Thanks for the link to the story. I've read about Lost Valley with fascination for several years now. Does anyone know where to get additional info about public trails in the area?
