Margarita Peak, Mountain summit in San Diego County, California.
Margarita Peak rises to 3,193 feet in elevation within the Santa Ana Mountains, offering views across Southern California and Camp Pendleton Marine Base.
The Fallbrook Land Conservancy acquired the peak and surrounding preserve, limiting public access to protect natural habitats and conduct scientific research.
The peak serves as a research site where scientists study native California plant species and wildlife patterns in their natural environment.
Reaching the summit requires a three-mile trek along unshaded roads, followed by navigation through dense manzanita brush on steep terrain.
The peak records fewer than twelve visitors annually, maintaining its status as one of Southern California's most isolated summits.
