SUMMARY:Sycamore Canyon Evening Hike
DESCRIPTION:Come join me for a quick-paced (2.5-3 miles per hour) evening hike. This will be the longer 9 mile version. \nWe will be on pavement or gravel most of the way\, which makes it good for nighttime! I am extending this hike an additional two miles (taking a side trail another hiking group I am in calls “Joanne’s Route”). \nThis area has a lot of No Picnicking signs throughout the park\, which means we need to keep moving and not stop for breaks or congregate. It is a reverse hike in that it goes down in the beginning and you go back up a steep hill at the end.We will hike/walk down to a campground picnic area. In non Covid times I would suggest congregating and having a restful snack there.It is across from the ranger’s house so we want to make sure to follow the rules and also not be very loud. We can stop briefly to rest or snack and then turn around and head back. \nDistance: 9 miles on Pavement and gravel roadElevation Gain: about 600 ftDifficulty: Intermediate hike due to pace and distance\, but an experienced fast paced beginner or someone willing to go the distance should be able to do it too\, please do not expect anyone to wait for you if you are slower and do not know the way.Dogs: NoRestrooms: There is an Andy Gump toilet mid hikeWater Fountain: NoParking: Free\, make sure you do not park on the street across from the trailhead or you will get a ticket. Park farther down at Potrero and Pinehill on the right then walk to the trailhead.Trail: Out and back\, pavement/fireroad this hike goes down at the beginning and up at the endSunset: 7:04 pm bring flashlight or headlampWeather: Adverse Weather conditions will cancel the hike. Come prepared with a light layer in your pack in case you get chilly from all the sweat! (I usually get chilled on the way back). \nKnown Dangers: Rattlesnakes\, poison oak\, Mosquitoes may all be encountered on this hike\, bug spray might be useful here.It is always possible to slip and fall though the road is flat wear comfortable shoes that you can wear on pavement or dirt. \nBring: Your headlamp\, a personal snack\, light layer and LOTS of H20 when it’s hot (maybe 2L or more L if you sweat a lot). \nCOVID-19 DISCLAIMER / RULESPlease follow the guidelines under the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). https://covid19.ca.gov/COVID information for Ventura and LA counties:• https://www.venturacountyrecovers.org/• http://www.publichealth.lacounty.gov/media/Coronavirus/ \nYour participation means you agree with the observance of mandated COVID-19 safety measures and you agree to follow these rules: \n• Each participant will observe social distancing of 6 ft. among ourselves.• It is required to carry a mask and wear it through the duration of the hike.

This hike starts at Potrero Rd and Big Sycamore Canyon Rd. There is no parking on Potrero Rd or Big Sycamore Canyon Rd\, so park on Pinehill Ave. We will hike Big Sycamore Canyon Rd to the Chumash Village and take the Satwiwa trail to connect with the Upper Sycamore Canyon trail.

It is always good to bring more than you need!Have a mask to take on and off as needed out of respect to other hikers/bikers we pass on the trail and in our group during the pandemic. We need to also continue to practice social distancing ourselves to continue to prevent the spread of Covid. \nDirections: From 101 (Ventura Freeway) take the Wendy off ramp and head south (towards the ocean).
