Cucamonga – First Solo Backpack

First solo backpack in Cucamonga Wilderness.

Cucamonga – First Solo Backpack

First solo backpack into the Cucamonga Wilderness. A straightforward trail but a trip where many small things went sideways-still manageable and completed without issues. Stayed on the established approach and kept pacing steady.

Used the outing to get familiar with solo logistics, camp setup, and managing unexpected problems alone.

Quick Info

  • Type: Solo backpack
  • Location: Cucamonga Wilderness
  • Movement: Standard trail approach

Notes

  • Good introduction to solo backcountry travel
  • Minor mistakes compounded but stayed controllable
