The San Diego peaks list holds a special place in my heart.  While I’d previously gained experience climbing the California 14ers, the San Diego list is where I transitioned into a prolific peakbagger and fell in love with Anza Borrego, the desert, and list chasing. Its a great list ranging from short trail hikes to moderate scrambles, a perfect goal for someone looking to build skills. I went on to complete the HPS, DPS, and LPC lists, as well as all 50 state high points, lower 48 ultras, and am just a few peaks away from completing the lower 48 P4ks. I still visit Anza Borrego as often as possible – there is always much to explore.

Trip reports from the San Diego peaks are found below. These hikes were completed 2010-2012 and while there are more modern resources, for now I plan to leave these up for legacy purposes.  For help with site navigation and a disclaimer, read this.
