SUMMARY:WESTLAKE VISTA PEAK + optional lunch at The Stonehaus
DESCRIPTION:BEFORE YOU WILL BE MOVED TO THE GOING LIST\, YOU WILL NEED TO UPDATE YOUR CDH PROFILE (The three questions must be answered with a “yes”) IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO. \nWESTLAKE VISTA PEAK (2445′) – One of the loneliest peaks in The Santa Monica Mountains \nTired of mundane hikes\, then join me on one of my favorite local treks as we make our way up to one of the loneliest peaks in the Santa Monica Mountains. You’ll see why it’s seldom bagged when you take on this little beast. We’ll follow a “use trail” from Hwy. 23 which is extremely steep and requires a bit of class 3 rock scrambling as well. \nThis little monster is for those who don’t scare easily to the challenges it offers. The pay off will be at the top of Westlake Vista Peak where you’ll have a unique view of three lakes (Sherwood\, Westlake and Las Virgenes reservoirs) and the Pacific Ocean. This 3+ mile 900’ gain is nothing to scoff at. So\, if you feel that you have what it takes and have hiked on tough little hikes before\, sign up for this local monster if the site of blood doesn’t bother you\, because there may be some. \nMEET UP LOCATION: Exit the 101 FWY at Westlake Blvd in Thousand Oaks. Head south on Westlake Blvd. to Potrero Rd. Turn right and go about 400 yards to Camberwell Pl. Immediately turn right on Margate Pl. where we’ll all meet before car shuttling to the trailhead. \nTIME: No later than 9:00 a.m. \nDURATION AND OBJECTIVE: What ever it takes to accomplish THE TASK (Time\, Energy\, Fear\, Pain\, Blood\, sweat\, tears\, etc.). \nTHE PEAK: Standing guard over Westlake Village at 2445′\, this unnamed peak which I’ll dub as “Westlake Vista Peak\, beckons to be conquered again. \nDISTANCE COVERED: One of the toughest 3+ mile treks around The Westlake Village area. Guaranteed to feel like you’ve done well over 7 miles when you’re done. \nPACE: We’ll travel as fast as the slowest trekker. But\, we do have to stay together\, since it’s very easy to loose the group and the “use” trails. \nELEVATION GAIN: 900′ + \nEXPERIENCE LEVEL: Strong Intermediate hiker with class 3 steep scrambling skills and bushwhacking experience that has hiked on tough hikes before. \nMY CELL# is 805-358-5972 \nOPTIONAL LUNCH (Debriefing): The Stonehaus (32039 Agoura Rd\, Westlake Village)https://the-stonehaus.com/lunch-and-dinner/

SUMMARY:THE RAZORBACK'S BOWL PEAK - Easier cross country route
DESCRIPTION:The weather is much better up there now\, so I’ve set this trek up there again. \nBEFORE YOU WILL BE MOVED TO THE GOING LIST\, YOU WILL NEED TO UPDATE YOUR CDH PROFILE (The three questions must be answered with a “yes”) IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO. \nLike others in our group\, I just can’t get enough of this area. (it’s so unique and isolated).PAST EVENT THERE via a much tougher routehttps://www.meetup.com/calabasasdayhikers/photos/30505729/486440049/#486456295Have you looked at our past events into the RAZORBACK ridge area of the Los Padres National Forest and wished you were able to enjoy this area but the events were for strong intermediate trekkers. Here’s a chance to gain the top of the RAZORBACK via its back door and look down into its bowl below (see picture of the bowl above). This route will be a much easier way to get there than what we have attempted in the past. Although this trek will be geared for our intermediate hikers that like an easier off trail hike\, our stronger hikers will enjoy this as well. Just remember that it will be at a slow intermediate pace. It’s a long day for a short trek but so worth it. \nI had our much stronger Friday hikers in mind when I created this easier excursion into The Los Padres National Forest. \nMICRO SPIKES will make trekking there so much easier\, especially if there’s still snow on the ground. \nIF YOU HAVE TO BE BACK BY A CERTAIN TIME\, PLEASE DON’T SIGN ON BECAUSE YOU MAY NOT MAKE YOUR APPOINTMENT. \nMEETUP LOCATION AND TIME: meet us at 8:30 am. at The Flying J Truck Stop (42810 Frazier Mountain Park\, Frazier Park)https://www.google.com/maps/place/34%C2%B049’01.0%22N+118%C2%B053’10.5%22W/@34.8169462\,-118.8873463\,18z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m13!1m6!3m5!1s0x80e9efbe677d9285:0xf025c089e1668cd8!2sFlying+J+Travel+Center!8m2!3d34.816763!4d-118.887325!3m5!1s0x0:0x0!7e2!8m2!3d34.8169435!4d-118.8862521After meeting here we will then caravan 25 minutes to the Razorback area to begin our adventure. \nDISTANCE: 4 miles of 100% cross country trekking along a sandy stream bed and easy but steep ridge lines.ELEVATION GAIN/LOSS: 900’/900′ \nTHE PACE: No faster than the slowest Trekker \nDURATION: I’d like to get back to the cars by 4:00 p.m. and stop off at Frazier Park for an optional debriefing in Frazier Park. \nTERRAIN: Trails? We don’t need no stinking trails to do this! We’ll first follow an old road a bit before following a sandy ravine to the base of a ridge leading us up to the backdoor ridge to the bowl. All this may be snow covered. \nLEVEL: Intermediate Trekker with off trail experience. \nSUGGESTIONS: We most likely will encounter packed snow along the way\, so bring trekking poles \nMY CELL# IS 805-358-5972 \nPOST HIKE DEBRIEFING: optional \nNO DOGS ALLOWED \nMake sure you wear a mask and practice CDC distancing guidelines.

SUMMARY:Beartrap Bluff
DESCRIPTION:This may be the newest peak on the Sierra Club Angeles Chapter’s Hundred Peaks list added in January 2014 by the Hundred Peaks’ legendary exploratory couple: Peter and Ignacia Doggett. Relatively few have done this peak so far\, and guaranteed to be one of your favorite peaks/hikes. It is located above the southern edge of Lockwood Valley just below Reyes Peak in the Los Padres National Forest. \nThe first five miles will be trail; however\, to access the peak\, one has to traverse a large steep rock slab or through a dry gully that gains elevation quickly. There is a year-round stream (Beartrap Creek) at the bottom of the rock slab that we will have to cross. \nAfter we leave the gully and rock slab\, there is a poor use-trail with cross country hiking to get to the rock outcroppings that overlook the badlands of Lockwood Valley. One other highlight is that we will pass a giant\, unusual oak tree along the trail. \nDistance: 12 miles round trip. \nElevation Gain: 3\,800 feet total with 3.000 feet to the peak and 800 feet for the return. The peak’s elevation is 6\,150 feet. \nPace: 2 to 2.2 mph on the trail; much slower when going up and down the peak. \nDifficulty: Moderately strenuous depending on one’s conditioning. \nMinimum Level: Intermediate hiker. \nWhat to bring: Minimum 3 liters of water\, food for lunch and snacks\, and layers of clothes for changing temperatures and elevation. \nMeeting Time and Place: 7:15 am at the Flying J Travel Center at Frazier Mountain Park Road just off I-5 in Lebec. Park in the adjacent northeast section of Motel 6’s parking lot. There will still be a one hour drive to the trailhead\, which is at Reyes Creek Station off of Lockwood Valley Road. Adventure Pass or National Park Pass may be needed for vehicles parked at the trailhead. Please bring if you have one. \nEarlier Meeting Time and Place: 6 am at corner of Leonora St and Ponce Av in Woodland Hills. No host will be there\, so participants will have to arrange their carpooling. Please be willing to drive and have a full tank of fuel. Riders please be willing to share in the cost of the fuel. \nDirections to the Lebec Meeting Place from Woodland Hills: Take the US-101 East/South\, I-405 North\, and I-5 North all the way through the Santa Clarita Valley. Go up the grade and continue to Frazier Mountain Park Road (Exit 205). Make a left turn and go just past the freeway to Flying J Travel Center on the left side of the road. \nOptional dinner afterwards at the Mexican Restaurant in Lebec.

SUMMARY:ARROYO BURRO TRAIL ALONG SAN ROQUE CREEK IN SANTA BARBARA
DESCRIPTION:Here’s an opportunity for our experienced beginner Trekkers to enjoy this beautiful area in Santa Barbara that our Intermediate Trekkers have done in the past. But this version is much shorter and far less elevation gain. As you can see from the photo above\, there is a creek (San Roque) that the Arroyo Burrow trail follows and we’ll have lots of shade along the way. We’ll start out from Stevens Park and end the hike there as well. Those interested can plan on having a picnic there and those not interested in doing so\, can head home. \nMEETUP LOCATION AND TIME: Stevens Park in Santa Barbara AT 9:00 AM (SEE MAP FOR EXACT LOCATION) \nEARLIER MEETUP LOCATION: The Thousand Oaks Park and Ride at the corner of Rancho Rd. and Haaland Dr. NO LATER THAN 7:45 a.m. It’s just south of the 101 Fwy and 23 Fwy interchange. Have a full tank of gas and be willing to drive if needed. Those that don’t drive can help pay for gas ($10/person). It’s about an hour’s drive to the trailhead. \nPUBLIC RESTROOM: Yes \nDISTANCE: 5 miles \nELEVATION GAIN/LOSS: 700’/700′ \nPACE: No faster than the slowest Trekker \nDURATION: 3+ hours not including picnic time \nTERRAIN: Single\, double track trails with occasional easy stream crossings \nLEVEL: Experienced beginner on up \nMY CELL# IS: 805-358-5972
