Potato Chip Rock is one of the most popular trails in Southern California. The trail takes you up to the summit of Mount Woodson, but along the way, it passes a famous rock that is often photographed and which looks like it is as thin as a potato chip. Of course, the rock is a lot less scary when you are standing on it, but from far away it makes for a good photo.

I gotta wonder how many people jumping up and down on potato Rock it's gonna take before it breaks...

@errhka 4 года назад

And it's a long way down when it does - that'll be a national news story for sure

My heart stopped when you jumped on the rock!!! 😱 awesome video, of course 👍

As a native Californian, I have learned so much about my home state. Thanks. The video is great. My idea of a "hike" is taking a walk through the flatland of my neighborhood

I hiked the east side, every day, until I moved in 2018. Incredible hik.

Hi Josh, it’s been crossing on my mind to go hike to this place. So, I finally I did it yesterday on Sunday after I saw your vlog first to get more information. I parked at the side the road of CA 67 (I got it from Google or Apple Maps for direction). Started from there hikes the trail that pretty steep so I made couple rest before got to summit. Waited almost an hour for long line to take picture. Then hit the road again back home, I stopped by to Burger Bench as recommended it in your vlog. I didn’t disappoint, the foods so good taste. Thanks Josh ....

Aww, my old stomping grounds. Did this hike countless times with my dog Ranger when I lived in San Diego. A great trainer for ambitious hikes like Mt Whitney.

Love the content always happy to see you post something new! Can you please also include roughly how long the hikes take you in your videos? I know it's different for everyone but nice to have a ballpark. How long did this hike take round trip? Thanks!

@markbowman5515 4 года назад

One of my favorite hikes. I like the other side better from the highway...huge boulders everywhere.

@WhoaNellieRVAdventures 4 года назад

Epic hike and a cool payoff at the top.

@californiathroughmylens 4 года назад

Agreed, it is a fun one!

@mr.elastomeric1787 4 года назад

Wow Josh that looks so deceptive from the opening shot; but half way hearing your breathing and seeing that incline for over a thousand feet you earned a cool brewski; maybe even two. Great hike.

@Comisario19 4 года назад

Thank for the video, I’ve always wanted to do this hike the long way and not the EASY way. Reason why I haven’t hiked it in a while.

@ianmandel352 4 года назад

Ok ,,i gotta do this soon before it gets really hot....Another Great Informative Vid ..

@kristywarner8325 3 года назад

What a cool hike! Being an Australian, my mind boggles at the elevation in some of the hikes there! Ours are so small in comparison.... it would be literally breath taking for me haha haha

@nickvh548 2 года назад

Killer hike! Killer burger!! Hope to be in San Diego later this month and will add both to my itinerary.

@isaacdunn6589 4 года назад

Hello from beloved poway!!!

@Latinochino 4 года назад

Did the trip to Potato chip rock on Presidents day. We took the short route which was 2 miles one way. WOW that shit was work! Be aware that is a non-stop incline to the top. Workout for sure.

@garyleibitzke4166 3 года назад

That's just a few miles from our house. We can see Mt. Woodson from our front yard. We live in Ramona, on the other side from Poway.

@CestVivienne 4 года назад

I went there last time. It was an hour hike plus an hour waiting for a photo! Long long line!

@georgebrock4182 2 года назад

You went the hard. Only 3 miles but all uphill

@aronmarbun4079 3 года назад

Recently I went there with my cane, it's so stif hiking. I stop tahe a deep breath every 15 minutes. It took me the whole day trip.

@revolutiongaming4557 4 года назад

Josh from California through my lens that food you ate at the end of this video looks delicious and Josh from California through my lens I like your videos.

@rbkpacheco 3 года назад

how many hours did it take to get there from the parking lot?

@allisonsherman7231 4 года назад

It does seem like an unusually hot winter. Phewww. Crazy rock. People may be afraid it will break.

@errhka 4 года назад

If you want a 'shorter hike' you can come in from the east side. Steeper incline but wayyyy shorter. Totally worth it. Also it is possible to climb from the bottom of the chip - you have to wedge yourself in and shimmy up the crevice but it's completely doable if you don't want to make that leap and possibly severely injure yourself (remember a life flight is $20k!)

Potatoe chip rock looks like a glitch in a game

@jlr3636 4 года назад

I can see Mt Woodson from my house , a 15min to the lower trailhead, on a weekend I’ve seen over 100 cars parked at upper Ramona trailhead with county sheriffs Controlling parking. People line up to Get a turn, kind of a joke (Disney Land) if your out for a mind clearing hike. I feel sorry for the people who live on the road between the parking and the chip.

Hey Spider Girl. If you are the young lady afraid of SPIDERS (or know this person) whom I met on the way down on Friday, April 19th, 2024, I think you dropped something. Please contact me so I can return it to you. Be safe.

@cdfcat 4 года назад

With all due respect, jumping on the flake was stupid, it WILL fail & break off one day, you were lucky it wasn't when u did that.

@AnyM4jorDude 4 года назад

Why would you climb that slice of a rock like that, let alone jump on it. Irresponsible! This is the same or even worse than people climbing natural arches for selfies. Or how about leaving trash behind in nature. UNSUBSCRIBING to both channel.
