A narrow rock spine above the Mojave on the San Andreas Fault, on the Devils Punchbowl Trail. 7.5 miles, 1,850 feet, one of LA County's most striking spots.

The trail is well-marked. Go straight and avoid the side trails to the picnic areas.
Here’s the trailhead. Go straight here. And note that the porta-potty is not always here.
The trailhead starts in this corner of the parking lot. There are some small trails around the lot to various picnic areas.
After a gradual climb, the trail follows the ridge-line around the side of the mountain. The last little section descends down to the fenced-in Devil’s Chair area. Also take note of the fault-line geology in this great satellite shot.

The hike lies on the edge of the Mojave Desert, and it can get very hot, arrive early to beat the heat.
