Trailhead


Monument Peak

Located at the northern end of the Laguna Mts, Garnet Peak marks the boundary between the alpine mountains and the Borrego Desert below. Views include Monument Peak and Stephenson Peak to the South, the Borrego Desert and Salton Sea to the East, and San Jacinto and San Gorgonio to the North. The true magic of Garnet Peak is discovered by those adventurous enough to be on the summit for sunrise. The sun's warm rays slowly bathe the desert and the jagged peaks that rise from it.
