Upper Zuma Falls via Backbone and Zuma Canyon Trail

https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/upper-zuma-falls-via-backbone-and-zuma-canyon-trail

Hello Fellow Hikers,
This is a really pretty area so it can get crowded best to do this one during the weekdays to stay away from the crowds. This isn’t to hard of a trail and great for most levels. With that said there is elevation so you will have some gradual incline. A great hike to bring the pups. With recent rains and cooler temps we should be greeted with greener views. Carpooling at our same meetup spot will be offered for anyone who wishes to carpool or follow to the trailhead (Best donuts located 2325 Kuehner Dr # 127 Simi Valley off the 118 freeway at 9:15am) I have attached the AllTrails link for directions, stats and photos..https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/upper-zuma-falls-via-backbone-and-zuma-canyon-trail
