Take US 101 and SR 33 to the town of Ojai.
From the intersection of SR 150 and SR 33 in Ojai, go north on SR 33 for 32 miles to Reyes Summit. Turn left at a gated and locked dirt road. This is the Potrero Seco Road. Park here.

Hike or bike past the gate and continue on the road.
Go 3.4 miles, keeping right at all forks to a cattle guard. Continue straight.
At 4.9 miles, Don Victor trail on the right. Continue straight.

At 8.1 miles is a set of large gendarmes marked on the TOPO as "Three Sisters". This was the previous parking location when driving in was allowed. The summit is 14 miles round trip from this point, 5000' total additional gain, 2500' out plus 2500' on return.
From this previous parking area, a dirt road starts and goes west. Follow this road along a ridge with many ups and downs to a saddle just east of Hildreth.
