I only rode the Hungry Valley trails.  My buddy that was with me is still a bit of a newbie and is not ready for the Los Padres Nationl Forest trails.

The trails in LPNF are a bit easier to run if you start there rather than climb up from Gorman.  Have you tried staging at Chuchupate campground or off Lockwood road?  Your friend might find that the fire road from Chuchupate up to the peak is an easier intro to the trails.

If you plan to run the 5 hundred up there sometime, let me know.  I'd love to go back.
