We went with the T and T (Truth and Training) boys on the 3rd annual hike up Cowles Mountain December 16. The day started out fairly wet and cold. We were on the trail at 6:00 with about 17 hikers. After about 15 minutes, the rain stopped and we just had heavy overcast skies.
In case you were wondering - no - we were not able to see the sunrise.Lake Murry from the top of Cowles Mountain.
Cowles Mountain (pronounced "kohls") got its name from George A. Cowles, one of San Diego's early prominent ranching pioneers. George Cowles settled in the El Cajon valley in 1877, having first visited San Diego in 1873, then selecting this area over others he had considered in the relatively new state of California.
