I've been wanting to hike to Sitton Peak for ten years but the weather here is quite hot most of the year. Finally, I've managed to bag this peak with a great group of fellow hikers. We've had this hike planned for about a month and coordinated a day that all of us could do it. The weather was perfect. Sunny and mild. Afterwords we drove down to San Juan Capistrano to Bad to the Bone Barbeque Restaurant. As ususal, the food there although a little pricey was excellent. Great hike, great company, great food, great day!
