So the wife tells me, "We're hiking Mount Rubidoux this weekend."
Okay.
It turns out that the trail to the top of Mt Rubidoux is paved, and cars are not allowed. Lots of people brought their dogs, including 4 different morons with Pit Bull Terriers (I hate pit bulls: I've x-rayed too many victims of their attacks).

On the trail.
It's 2 miles uphill, then a 1 mile trail back down to the parking lot.
My reward was that we went from Mt Rubidoux over to San Jacinto Wildlife Area. Didn't see either Rough-legged Hawk, but saw a Golden Eagle, 2 White-tailed Kites, tons of Red-tails, and at least 15 Ferruginous Hawks.
