Now a Valentine’s Day tradition – but this time with a COVID safe twist! Attendance will be EXTREMELY LIMITED to just a handful of people – waitlist only – priority given to those I’ve been hiking with during the pandemic and who I know respect the rules regarding masks and distancing. Hopefully next year we’ll be able to resume normal activities for the 5th anniversary of this fun and silly hike.
We will start and end our trek from a secret location and head up toward Calabasas Peak. Once we conquer the peak, we will head down to the junction with Red Rock, where we begin our ridge line scramble through beautiful rock formations up to the Topanga Lookout, amazing views from the Pacific to the Santa Susana Mountains.
At the Topanga lookout we will rest, check out the current graffiti, enjoy the magnificent views and have some lunch, before we continue down the Stunt High Trail. Then it’s back up Calabasas Peak Motorway (we’ll skip the peak and stick to the fire road this time) and back down to the cars
The Stats:
Distance: 13+ miles
Elevation Gain: ~3000 ft.
Duration: 7+ hours
Difficultly: Intermediate
Trail: Single track, fire road and class 1,2 rock climbs
Parking Permit: Not required
