I’m planning on doing a little exploring in the Chilao area near Newcomb’s Ranch. The goal is to take a short cross country side route to the Bell Hartman Mine which I’ve been to before as well as some trails in the Chilao area including a steep rocky trail to Mount Mooney. We might follow a canyon that feeds Alder Creek if time permits. There are pools, most likely dry this time of the year, that will be my final objective. After that we can stop off at Panera Bread for lunch in La Canada.
An Adventure Pass will be needed to park at Chilao – so we need to make sure that every car taken up there has one.
MEETUP LOCATION AND TIME: 6:30am at the Woodland Hills Meetup location. Those who want to carpool from Woodland Hills, can meet me at the corner of Leonora and Ponce Avenue. Ponce is the first street east of Fallbrook. We can park on Ponce which is not in front of any houses.
IF MEETING HERE, LET ME KNOW.
