2026 Fool's Traverse

The Fool’s Traverse is a demanding endurance challenge hosted by TRVRS Outdoors, designed to promote safer and more mindful hiking. The event features 11 checkpoints spread throughout the Mount Baldy region, which participants must navigate strategically.

Nearly all of the checkpoints sit above 8,000 feet, and the connecting trails offer both breathtaking scenery and significant elevation changes. The route varies from gentle hiking paths to technical Class 2 terrain and steep talus fields. Those who take on the challenge are rewarded with sweeping views of the Sheep Mountain Wilderness, Angeles National Forest, and Cucamonga Wilderness areas.
