Hello Fellow Hikers,
We have another request and what a beautiful trail at that. This is one of the prettiest routes on the Backbone Trail. Will be doing this hike clockwise to tackle the hard stuff first and go up the incline instead of down it. Easier on the knees. This trail will have a lot of beautiful Santa Monica Mountain views. A lot of beautiful scenery on this hike. After we tackle the front section from there we will have a nice more moderate hike. I have attached the AllTrails link for directions, pics, and stats https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/backbone-trail-loop
