This one is Moderate / Moderate +++ mainly for thin air (low oxygen) impact and long steeper stretches. \nHIKE DURATION: About 4 1/2 hours (including a 20-minute snack break) \nDESCRIPTION:\nThis 7-mile hike from the 8100 ft. trail head takes you to 2 summits (first Grouse 8573ft and then Sawmill Mountain 8818 ft). The trail is mostly in the forest but a lot of up hill. We will have a 20-minute Snack and recovery break at Grouse\, then on to Sawmill for the Peek photo \, then back to the trail head ( Down and up both ways). Moderate hikers should be easily able to complete all two summits.\nBear in mind\, this entire “out and back” trail is very well marked/ easy to follow\, so you can safely turn around at ANY stage\, depending on your ability/ stamina. Also\, we will have signposted the route with our popular orange chalk arrows to help you 🙂 \nBRING:\nStrong shoes\, dress in layers (expecting 75 F at start). Poles are useful\, if you have them; snack lunch; a hat; !!sunscreen!!\, bug spray / bug net (in case). 3 liters of liquids (2L water/ 1 liter electrolytes\, i.e. Gatorade)\, and your camera. \nADVENTURE PASS:\nNot required. See bathroom note below. \nMEET : (Google Coordinates 34.82860\, -119.20190)\nYour leader at the West Tumamait Trailhead 8:30 AM \, located along Cerro Noroeste Road near the summit of Cerro Noroeste. The group will head out at 8:40 Sharp. Trailhead parking is along the shoulder of the road\, allow 1 ½ hours to get to trailhead from Santa Clarita. \nDIRECTIONS: From Santa Clarita Valley: Take I-5 North ~ 40 miles to the Frazier Park off ramp. Exit\, turn left under highway. Go West on the Frazier Park Road for about 12 miles passing Lockhart Valley Road (on the left) until you see signs for Mt. Pinos (Do not go to Mt Pinos). Slight right onto Forest Rte 9N05 (this will route you through Pine Mountain Club). Continue onto Forest Hwy 95/Mil Potrero Hwy for about 5 ½ miles. Turn left onto Cerro Noroeste Rd/Forest Rte 9N25 and follow the road up 6.9 miles till you see the West Tumamait Trailhead on the right. The parking is limited by the trail head\, however if we use Angle parking we should be able to maximize the limited space. \nNOTE: There are no operational Porta Potty toilets at trailhead. We recommend a quick stop as you exit the 5 Fwy at the Truck stop / gas station on the left\, before heading toward Frazier Park.

SUMMARY:Short/ Long Local Hikes: Weldon Cyn to East Cyn; or add on Mission Peak
DESCRIPTION:Shorter or Longer Local Hikes: Weldon Canyon to the junction with East Canyon\, or go longer out to Mission Peak and back. \nDistance/ Gain:\nBoth hikes are Out and Back (O/B) style; length depends on whether you do the second part (an extra ~3.7 miles round trip). \nNOTE: If you just want to do the “Shorter” hike\, once we hit East Canyon\, you will check out with the leaders and then head back the same way you arrived\, back down to Weldon Canyon. It is straightforward but you will also be able to follow the arrows (we will have left) to the trail head. \n\n\n“Shorter”: Weldon to the East Canyon junction ~ 5.5 mile Round trip total with 900′ gain. Views of SFV\, SCV and Oat Mountain\, returning to Weldon trail head. Fair warning – this hike starts steeply but does get much easier later. This hike should finish by 11.15 AM \n\n\n“Longer”: Same as above but ~ 9.2 mile Round Trip hike with 1600′ gain. At the East Canyon junction you continue to the top of East canyon\, where you turn South on the Sunshine Canyon Motorway for an out and back to Mission Peak. 3.7 extra miles. Views of SFV\, the Van Norman Reservoir\, Balboa Blvd\, the West side of San Gabriels and East side of the Santa Susana Mountains off to the West. Return the same way to Weldon trail head. This hike should finish by 12.30 PM \n\n\nRating:\nHike #1 – Easy+ / Moderate\nHike #2 – Moderate + (mainly for distance).\nBoth hikes are not for beginners – you need to be in good physical condition to complete them\, due to some decent gain near the start\, over a short distance. \nDescription: Visit the rolling hills\, views and quiet oak woodlands of the 480-acre Michael D. Antonovich Open Space. The area straddles the ridgeline of the Santa Susana Mountains and features mixed woodlands of big cone Douglas-fir\, big leaf maple\, coast live oak\, California black walnut\, native ash\, and valley oak. Chances are high we will meet almost no one else for most of the hike. \nMeet your leader: At the Weldon Canyon Trail Head at 7:45 AM for a 8:00 AM SHARP departure up the canyon. Park off the road near the brown Weldon Canyon sign. \nDirections to Weldon Canyon Trail Head (22925 Coltrane Avenue\, Newhall (34.34103\, -118.52595):\nExit the I-5 freeway if going North\, at Calgrove Blvd. Turn West and follow Calgrove around a curve and through one signal. You are now on the Old Road. Pass Towsley Cyn on the right; keep going along the road South and under the 5 FWY until you see a bridge on right that goes over the 5 FWY (Weldon Canyon Rd. to Coltrane Avenue). Follow it\, as if going to the Oak Tree Gun Club\, but stop near the brown Weldon Cyn sign on the left. \nBring: Lots of water\, snack/lunch\, hiking poles and a camera. Good shoes with tread are a must going up Weldon. If the day is cool\, bring an extra layer\, especially if going to Mission Peak\, as it usually is windy. \nAdventure Pass: Not required \nDogs: Ok\, if on a leash and well-behaved with other dogs / people. \nLeader(s): Nancy H
