SUMMARY:HWD Ranch - Mormon Canyon Loop
DESCRIPTION:Another HWD Original! \nThe world-famous HWD Ranch is located within the stunning Hidden Creeks parkland near the confluence of Browns Creek and Mormon Creek. The parkland provides a key migration corridor and perennial water source to a full complement of large mammals including black bear\, mountain lion\, mule deer\, bobcat\, American badger\, grey fox\, long-tailed weasel\, ring-tailed cat\, and the endangered California Condor. \nNature won’t be the only thing we’ll experience. We may get a chance to meet Ferdinand\, a bull that roams the area and a couple of wild horses. There are lots of old artifacts to explore along the way\, including old ranch houses\, abandoned ranch vehicles\, a dam and much more! So expect a lot of stops along the way. \nHIKE IS 6 MILES WITH ABOUT 1\,000 FT TOTAL ASCENT AND IS RATED MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nDIRECTIONS:\nSee detailed instructions here \nHead toward the address given. You are going to park in a turnout on Brown’s Canyon Rd on either side of driveway to old Misty Hollow Ranch – now owned by MRCA \nThere is an old for-sale sign post. You can park in turnout immediately before or immediately after that. We’ll meet in the driveway by that signpost

SUMMARY:Caballero Canyon - Gizmo Peak Loop
DESCRIPTION:Topanga State Park remains closed but I will take you about as close as you can get by tracing the northern boundary with perhaps a view of some of the fire damage. \nSo\, join us for a short but heart-pounding hike through the old stomping grounds of Edgar Rice Burroughs in Caballero Canyon.

SUMMARY:🏈 10th Annual Pre-Game Hike: Calabasas Peak Without the Fireroads
DESCRIPTION:Amazon Top 10 for Cheap Hikers \nI almost forgot 🤪 \nOur 10th Annual Super Bowl Pre-Game Hike is perfect. Short enough to get you home on time and prepare for parties and kickoff\, yet big on beauty and adventure. You may even have time to get to New Orleans. ✈️ \nOur destination is a familiar one but on this trek we’ll stay off the fire and service roads that everyone else uses. \n🗻Calabasas Peak (2163 ft) towers over Red Rock Canyon\, Old Topanga Canyon and bowl-shaped Cold Creek Canyon. From the top there are spectacular views into Ventura County\, the Pacific Ocean and San Fernando and Simi valleys. \nWe’ll begin at the Secret Trail (aka the Calabasas-Cold Creek Trail) and wind our way through shaded ravines\, dense chaparral and sandstone outcrops until we reach Calabasas Peak Motorway. Here we throw away the hiking book (I lose so many books this way) and instead of taking the Motorway to Calabasas Peak\, we’ll go off-trail along some use trails. We’ll not only bag the peak\, but we’ll also circumnavigate it along an old overgrown trail. \n(Optional: There are a lot of giant sandstone slabs and other formations to explore\, but not required. Members who like rock climbing are encouraged to do so\, the rest of us will take pictures) \n👉Hike is 4.7 miles with about 1\,200 feet total gain and rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nWe’ll have our snack break at a hidden cistern. Don’t drink the water 😆 \nDirections\nThe trail head is located on Mulholland Hwy less than a fifth of a mile west of Dry Canyon Cold Creek Road. See my interactive map \nCoordinates: 34.12666\, -118.65748 \nFrom the 101 freeway in Agoura/Calabasas\, head South on Las Virgenes Road to Mulholland Hwy. Turn Left on Mulholland and continue 5.7 miles to a small parking area on the right. or…. \nFrom 101 Ventura Fwy in the Vally: take Valley Circle/Mulholland Dr exit south\, turn right on Valmar Rd (becomes Old Topanga Cyn Rd) then right on Mulholland Hwy 2.1 miles to the parking area on the left. \nFrom PCH take Topanga Canyon and turn left up Old Topanga. Take a left at Mulholland Hwy for a couple miles and then turn left onto turnout. If you are coming up Malibu Canyon take a right at Mulholland for 5.7 miles \nPark off-pavement. There is overflow parking 500′ south (“west”) across the street next to the house. \nImportant \nThe Organizers and members of Hiking With Dean are not professional leaders\, guides\, or mountaineers.

For most people\, At the western end of Moores Canyon we’ll use a little-know trail that will get us into ULV Open Space. \nNote: There are a couple sections that I have not been on since before the Woolsey Fire\, and back then they were not well maintained. So buckle up\, buttercup. \nHike will be about 6 miles with about 1\,000 feet total ascent. Hike is rated MEDIUM+ due to possible bushwhacking.
