The unique geology on the Devil's Chair hike make it one of the most beautiful hikes in the area. The hike is in Devil's Punchbowl Natural Area, which is a transition zone between the Mojave Desert and San Gabriel Mountains. It's also on the San Andreas Fault, which has a role in pushing up the mountains of SoCal. And this easy/moderate hike ends on a dramatic rock perch called the Devil's Chair, offering spectacular views of the colorful geology and fauna around you.

Hiking the Punchbowl in the snow is the absolute best!!! Good times.. good times.

@cpcolumbus 5 лет назад

My 4-legged-tail-waggin-adventure-pal & I visit the Punchbowl at least once a month. Great place, the staff is super. Look into the moonlight hikes. Generally on the Loop Trail. The rock formations look amazing under a full moon!

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Ahhhhh moonlight hikes here sound awesome, just added to my list, thank you!

Love this place. Been there many times years ago when I lived in palmdale. Used to hunt big rock creek

@ivettearguelles5577 4 года назад

Amazing video.. I been going here but learned some info from your video... next time I go I’ll take a look.

@Hikingguy 4 года назад

Thank you! Beautiful area, glad you're enjoying it!

Awesome! Great to see another hike video! I've been to the Punchbowl a couple of times, but never did the Devil's Chair. I have hiked all the way to Burkhart Saddle and Pallett Mountain via Burkhart Trail, a tough but extremely scenic hike, but this one sure looks scenic as well. Looks like the Devil's Chair Trail has a junction with the South Fork Trail as well! South Fork Trail gains the crest at Islip Saddle.

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Yea, I need to do some exploring on South Fork heading southbound, on the list. And Burkhart is another great one, will have a guide up for that in the near future. That whole area is so unique and beautiful.

@brianpowell5082 5 лет назад

I know! It is awesome. The San Gabriels are one of my favorite areas period!! I just did Granite Mountain and Pacifico Mountain yesterday! Scenery is insane!!

Great video, thank a lot. I will try to do this hike this SUNDAY

@Hikingguy 3 года назад

I think it's closed from the Bobcat fire, check the alerts link in my guide or visit the ANF website.

@richardbright9616 4 года назад

Just did the hike today! Good stuff!

@Hikingguy 4 года назад

Nice, yea, this hike is one of my faves. The scenery never gets old.

@richardbright9616 4 года назад

HikingGuy.com have you hiked the Heather Lake loop at Sequoia NP? There is a section of the assent (not the humpback trail) that is absolutely breathtaking.

@Hikingguy 4 года назад

@@richardbright9616 I have not but I just put it on my hit list, thanks for the tip!

@Sheety33 5 лет назад

Nice! Just did this on New Year’s Day! Video on my channel. Was unbelievably cold!!!

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Nice, yea, the temps really swing here, it's pretty crazy. I've done it with ice, and done it in 100F+.... will check you video out now...

@ExploringCalifornia 5 лет назад

Great video, I been to Devil's Punchbowl but never been on the trail. After watching this video I will have to hike it.

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Awesome, thank you, and yea, do the hike, it's spectacular...

@isagsd5502 5 лет назад

Great video. I will definitely add this one to my list of hike to do this year. What time of year did you take this hike? I noticed the sun is very low in background and there was no snow on the ground.

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Yea, did this in early Oct I think, just took me a while to get it up on the site. Doing these guides take hours, wish I had more time. Anywho... this is a great time to do it, don't think the snow is that bad these days...

@mrdavesoutdooradventures 4 года назад

Great videos! I am really getting into different so cal trails. This one is near the top of my list! Is it open now? I’ve heard it is and I’ve heard it isn’t. Regardless, thank you for doing these videos!

@Hikingguy 4 года назад

Thank you! I haven't been here since the lockdown so not sure, but I have the ranger office tel number in the guide, so check out the link in the description and give them a call. Def worth doing at some point even if it's closed now.

@HuskyMike 5 лет назад

Very cool. I'll check this out soon! Did you get a new still photo camera? Photos on your website for this hike look a bit better than other hikes. Not that the others looked bad, these just look better- more contrast, color and detail.

@Hikingguy 5 лет назад

Yea, switched to the new iPhone Xs Max, camera is incredible. The video is on a Garmin VIRB 360 and then converted to HD. Always trying to get better gear that isn't too bulking or fragile for outside.

@winy68 4 года назад

thanks for the video, is that 7.5 / 8 miles round trip?

@Hikingguy 4 года назад

Yup > hikingguy.com/hiking-trails/best-la-hikes/devils-chair-hike-devils-punchbowl-natural-area/

@ussdorsetshire 2 месяца назад

Doing this hike Saturday. Is there a water crossing? If so, how deep/wide is it so that we're properly prepared?

@Hikingguy 2 месяца назад

Nothing to worry about, small stream
