Mt Wilson, Altadena. 9 miles each way; 4500&#8242; elevation gain. In 1864 Benjamin Wilson built the first trail (named after him Mt. Wilson). 1889 it was a four foot wide toll-trail for .50 a rider, .25 per hiker. In 1912 it was used as the roadway to transport the 100-inch telescope to the mountaintop. In 1964 Metromedia Inc, purchased the entire mountaintop from the Mt Wilson Hotel Co. The old hotel was torn down and in its place arose a Skyline Park, complete with pavilion, a children&#8217;s zoo, and picnic areas. In 1976 it was deeded to the Forest Service and today those features are unrecognizable.Directions: From the Foothill Freeway (I-210) in Arcadia, take the Santa Anita Avenue exit and drive north to Chantry Flat, 4.6 miles. A National Forest Adventure Pass is required for parking. The vehicle gate for Chantry Flat Road is open from 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 p.m. There is a sign at the trailhead showing the trail route. Enjoy.<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_eLyhl-NmdIQ\/S3sgcEBJvCI\/AAAAAAAAACs\/8qBVO-99ulg\/s1600-h\/DSC07235.jpg\"><img id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438976641467005986\" style=\"display: block;
