SUMMARY:Tapo Canyon Night Hike\, Simi Valley
DESCRIPTION:This hike is cross posted with Dean’s\, Hiking with Dean. \nTonight’s hike will take us into a canyon that has views of the surrounding Santa Susana Mountains which we might see before it gets completely dark. This is not a difficult hike because the elevation is rather mild\, and it’s spread out over the whole hike with gradual climbs. \nNo white flashlights are allowed on this hike…it’s a Dean rule…bring green or red lights. Use white lights for emergencies only. \nBefore heading out\, we will stop for a break. Bring wine and booze\, and snacks to share. \nFrom the trail head\, we’ll hike about ½ mile on level ground followed by a steady climb about a mile to the junction at the top. We’ll turn left\, climb a small hill\, and then head down about 1½ miles into the canyon. \nComing back\, we will climb about 3/4 of a mile up to the junction\, this is a semi steep incline but doable for beginners. At the junction\, we’ll hike down for about 1½ miles back to the trailhead. \nHIKING DETAILS:Distance: about 4.5 milesElevation Gain: about 800’Difficulty: Beginner/ intermediateDogs: Yes\, leashedRestrooms: NoParking: Free in the gravel area in front of the trail head\, and along the road on both sides of Tapo Canyon.Trail: Single track and Fire Roadish\, excellent condition \nKnown Dangers: Rattlesnakes\, slip-‘n-fall \nWHAT TO BRING:1-2 liters of water.Snacks and/or beverages to share.Hiking shoes are preferred\, but athletic shoes will be OK. \nDIRECTIONS:The trailhead is about 450 feet\, or one minute\, before Lost Canyon Drive which is on the left with a street light. If you get to Lost Canyon Drive\, you have gone too far…turn around. \nGoogle maps seem to have the most accurate directions. Here is a link to Google Street View of the trailhead: Tapo Canyon Trailhead (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.304698\,-118.720457\,3a\,69.7y\,93.92h\,90.4t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1svRHdp7FenigPZ3zwLQ1PGw!2e0) The GPS coordinates of the trailhead are: 34.304410 N\, and 118.720291 W\, but trust your GPS at your own risk.

SUMMARY:Once Upon a Time In Hollywood Chatsworth
DESCRIPTION:On this hike\, we will cross paths with the famous and the infamous. The famous is the site of the Spahn Ranch movie set for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. The infamous is the site of the real Spahn Ranch. Along the way we’ll learn additional Chatsworth history. \nOur trek begins at the top of the Old Stagecoach Rd and ventures west and down through Twilight Canyon to Corriganville where Quentin Tarantino created the set for the Spahn Ranch in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. For those of you familiar with the park\, you know this isn’t the first movie filmed at Corriganville and we’ll be visiting some of the older movie and TV sites also. \nAfter a little site-seeing and a loop around Corriganville we’ll head up a hill to the 118 and cross under it using a wildlife corridor. From there we’ll take a seldom-used trail to the fork at the Hummingbird Trail and Rocky Peak Trails. Here\, we’ll find a rock house — a small room under a rock overhang. It was built as part of a movie set. Across the trail from the rock house is a natural cave above the trail. Rumor has it that an entire family lived there at one time. This a perfect spot for our snack break! \n[asa2_collection tpl=”Flat_box_horizontal” orderby=”rand” show_features=”no” show_description=”no” limit=”1″]6[/asa2_collection] \nWe continue our loop by heading down Rocky Peak Rd and catch the El Camino Nuevo which will bring us to the Spahn Ranch. Nowadays\, the ranch is basically nonexistent; its remnants are fully blended into a maze of trees\, shrubs and poison oak. We’ll take another snack break at the infamous Manson family cave. Immortalized in a 1969 Time magazine photo/piece about the clan\, the rock remains untouched\, and offers fans the chance to channel their inner Mansonite for a morbid photo op. \nOur return to the Old Stagecoach Rd will take us across the lands once claimed by Chatsworth homesteaders. \n[av_notification title=’Hike Rating’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue8c7′ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’orange’ border=” custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ av_uid=’av-n88i8k’ custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”]\nHike will be about 8 miles with 1\,900 ft total ascent and is rated DIFFICULT due to terrain. See the Hike Rating Guide\n[/av_notification] \n  \nEnjoy the history lessons below 🙂\n  \nThe Spahn Ranch\nThe ranch took its name from dairy farmer George Spahn\, who purchased the property in 1948. Many western-themed movies and television shows were filmed on the ranch\, including Duel in the Sun (1946) and television episodes of Bonanza\, The Lone Ranger\, and Zorro. It was also the filming location for the B-movie The Creeping Terror. \nThe Spahn Ranch is notorious for having been the primary residence of Charles Manson and his followers\, the “Manson Family\,” for much of 1968 and 1969. Spahn was 80 years old and living at the ranch when he allowed The Manson Family to move in\, rent-free\, in exchange for labor.A wildfire destroyed all of the Spahn Movie Ranch’s film sets and residential structures on September 26\, 1970. George Spahn died on September 22\, 1974\, and is buried in Eternal Valley Memorial Park in nearby Newhall\, California. \nHere we are February 2018; on the ranch and re-doing the iconic 1969 Time-Life photo.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCorriganville\nWe’ve been here many times. From 1937 to 1965 Corriganville Movie Ranch\, owned by stuntman Ray “Crash” Corrigan\, was a working film studio and movie ranch for outdoor location shooting. In 1949\, it opened to the public on weekends and holidays. \nWhy not just let Crash show you around the ranch on his DVD \n[asa2 tpl=”Movie” align=”center” ajax=”1″]B001O4C6S0[/asa2] \nIn 1965 Ray Corrigan sold the property to Bob Hope. A housing subdivision called Hopetown was developed and built on a parcel near the park entrance. In the late 1960s and early 1970s part of the site was used for motorcycle racing. In 1970 the ranch was swept by fire. In 1979 another fire destroyed virtually all of the remaining structures. \nIn 1988 The land was acquired by the City of Simi Valley for use as a regional park \nHere are videos of the “Jungle Jim Rock” and “Robin Hood Lake.”  To the right is Fort Apache \n[av_one_half first av_uid=’av-1qa17tg’] \n[av_video src=’http://youtu.be/G-MeZdkkeFo’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-1bqa6yc’ id=” custom_class=”] \n[/av_one_half] \n[av_one_half av_uid=’av-s3zo0k’] \n[av_video src=’http://youtu.be/YK7ajTUHHrY’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-lxwzdg’ id=” custom_class=”] \n[/av_one_half] \nThe structures have been torn down but here we are October 2018 crashing the set for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.\n[av_video src=’https://youtu.be/0F0lGfSnEyI’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-nx8pn8′ id=” custom_class=”] \nEl Camino Nuevo\nMore appropriately known as the Chatsworth Grade Road it replaced the stagecoach route in 1895 and provided an easier and smoother route to transport goods. It was also able to accommodate motorized vehicles. We’ll be hiking along this old grade which was replaced by our familiar Old Santa Susana Pass in 1917. \n[av_notification title=’More to Follow’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue80f’ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’silver’ border=’solid’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ custom_class=” av_uid=’av-q2xs38′ admin_preview_bg=”]\nCheck back here often as I will be adding more historical notes\, photos and videos over the next few days\n[/av_notification] \n[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=” av-desktop-hide=” av-medium-hide=” av-small-hide=” av-mini-hide=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” av_uid=’av-2bbqms’] \nDirections\nRSVP Here: https://www.meetup.com/localhikers/events/264413389/ \nFrom the 118 – Exit Rocky Peak Rd\, turn right on Santa Susana Rd.

SUMMARY:10th Annual Chatsworth Halloween Hike - Saturday Night Version
DESCRIPTION:We’ve been doing this one in Chatsworth/Twin Lakes since 2009. It’s the scariest hike this side of Transylvania! \nDue to ongoing development in the area our exact path is unknown at this time\, but I estimate it to be about 4 miles with 700′ elevation gain. I will have more accurate figures after pre-scouting the area. \n \nCostumes are optional: https://amzn.to/2n5iZyX \nI don’t have many night photos but enjoy this video from Halloween 2014\n \n  \nDon’t forget to check out the daytime extended version of the hike \nPart of the hike will be on little-used trails. Long pants would be nice for some short segments\, but not required for hike. Wear hiking shoes or boots. Expect the unexpected. If you are not an experienced hiker this hike may not be for you. \nNO WHITE LIGHTS – Red and Green lights only. If you don’t have one you can tailgate off of someone else’s. Here are some recommendations:\n[asa2_collection show_prime=”no” title_length=”50″ savings_text_style=”long” max_width=”2000″ max_row_items=”3″ tpl=” Flex_1″ width=”50%”]4[/asa2_collection] \nDIRECTIONS\nTake 101 or 118 to Topanga and head to the north end. Make a left on Poema and park at curb. We meet at the Bella Vista entrance \nAdvice – avoid the Twin Lakes neighborhood roads. Use major arteries to get to Topanga and Poema \nCheck out the map and familiarize yourself with the destination and neighborhood. Carpooling is recommended (see Warner Center Park and Ride).

SUMMARY:10th Annual Chatsworth Halloween Hike - Sunday Day Version
DESCRIPTION:I’ll be handing out free hiking snacks on this hike.\nWe’ve been doing this one in Chatsworth/Twin Lakes since 2009. It’s the scariest hike this side of Transylvania! \nDue to ongoing development in the area our exact path can change at any time\, but I estimate it to be a little less than 5 miles with 1060′ elevation gain. There is water in a section of the creek – you might get your toes wet. Long pants recommended if you are sensitive to poison oak. NO BEGINNERS \n[av_notification title=’Hike Rating’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue8c5′ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’orange’ border=’solid’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ av_uid=’av-s3zor5′ custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”]\nHike is rated MEDIUM due to terrain. See Hike Ratings Guide here \n[/av_notification] \nCostumes are optional: https://amzn.to/2n5iZyX \nVideo from 2014\n \n  \n[asa2_smart_collection tpl=”Flat_box_horizontal” orderby=”rand” show_features=”no” show_description=”no” limit=”1″ /] \n  \n…..A group of innocent hikers\, unaware of what waits beyond the next switchback….. \n \nBOO! \n \nChatsworth E-Riders Sprucing up Boot Hill in 2014. Its a ghoulish job but someone has to do it. \n \nYou’ll lose your head on this hike \n \nR.I.P. Jennifer North \nPart of the hike will be on little-used trails. Long pants would be nice for some short segments\, but not required for hike. Wear hiking shoes or boots. Expect the unexpected. \nWe have a night version also — check it out here: https://www.hikingwithdean.com/event/10th-annual-chatsworth-halloween-hike-night-version/ \nDIRECTIONS\nGo to the north end of Canoga Ave and park under the 118 and look for the horseless ones. Do not block any gates or trails. There is additional parking on Candice Pl. \n[av_notification title=’Attention’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue8df’ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’orange’ border=’solid’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ av_uid=’av-shi86p’ custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”]\nAvoid Twin Lakes residential streets. Use Chatsworth St to connect Topanga\, Owensmouth or De Soto with Canoga Av.\n[/av_notification]
