Hiking
Mount Gleeson is a unique mountain on the northwestern side of the Angeles National Forest, just off the PCT. This large flat summit was actually leveled to house a Nike missile radio base, making it a rather odd plateau surrounded by trees. Most of the old buildings are gone, but there are some radio towers that remain further down the abandoned road.
