Let’s get out and hike before the festivities & fireworks begin. The weather forecast will be a high of 68-degrees. We can finally enjoy some cooler weather.

We will begin our trek hiking through Newton Canyon 2.5 miles until we reach Zuma Canyon Ridge road. Then we will continue on the fireroad with a gradual ascent up to Buzzard’s Roost. At the top of the view point we will be rewarded with ocean views and cool breezes. After admiring the views we will head back to our cars.
This will be an out-n- back hike.

Difficulty- intermediate, NO BEGINNERS PLEASE!
Distance- 8 miles
Gain- 1700′ (approximate)
Terrain- single track & rocky fire road
Restrooms- at the trailhead
Parking- dirt road, no NFS pass needed.
