RE: San Gabriel Mountain Adventures - The Red Box Loop
i wonder where the name Disappointment came from? It does look anything but!!!

The first official surveyors of the area thought it was the highest point, but upon climbing to the top they saw that San Gabriel peak about a mile away was actually a few hundred feet higher. The views from Mt. Disappointment are actually better than San Gabriel peak in my opinion though.
I dont think anything in nature should be called a disappointment!
