Route Description for Three Ts Trail
A long and beautifully scenic loop, the Three Ts Trail will see you traverse the summits of Timber Mountain, Telegraph Peak, and Thunder Mountain, making for an unforgettable day out on the trails of Southern California. This is a physically demanding adventure, so make sure that you wear sturdy hiking footwear, bring poles for stability, and pack plenty of snacks and water.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will initially make your way to the southeast alongside Icehouse Creek as it flows through the canyon. After gaining some elevation through Icehouse Canyon by means of a series of switchbacks, the trail will turn to the north to reach the summit of Timber Mountain.
After taking in the views, you will crack on through the mountainous terrain in order to traverse Telegraph Peak and Thunder Mountain, before descending through Baldy Notch, where you can pop into the Top of the Notch restaurant for a mid-hike snack. From here, you will follow along Baldy Road and visit the cascading San Antonio Falls, before arriving back at the trailhead where you began.
