SUMMARY:Mt. Baldy via the Ski-Hut Trail Return via the Notch
DESCRIPTION:Sorry for the short notice but the forecast for thunderstorms has waffled back and forth. It finally looks like Sunday will be a day with zero T’storm chances. \nHike to the summit via the Ski Hut trail and descend via the Backbone trail to the Notch and then via the service road back down to Manker Flats or take the lift\, your coice \nBring snacks for the summit and trail. \nAdvanced Intermediate Hikers. You should have Mt. Baldy Summit experience via the Backbone Trail beforehand. \n \nStats: \nDistance: 11 miles \nElevation Gain: ~4\,000 ft. \nMax elevation : 10\,064 ft. \nRating: 7/10 Strenuous \nTrail: Looped some pavement\, fire roads\, but mostly single track and rocky trails \nESSENTIALS: \n2 Liters of water (Minimum) \nSunscreen \nHat \nSnacks \nHiking Poles (Recommended) \nLayered clothing (can be windy & chilly at the summit) \nCheck the Weather (http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/hdfForecast?query=91759&searchType=WEATHER) \nNOTE: \nThis is considered a high altitude hike and high altitude sickness\, AKA acute mountain sickness\, is a possibility. Good Physical health is important. The San Antonio Ski Hut/Baldy Bowl Trail is considered the most direct route to the summit of Mount Baldy (10\,064′). This climb is considered strenuous. \nAs you approach the Manker Flat parking area you will be on a 4 lane road with a wide center divider. Parking is on both sides and in the divider. After you pass the Manker Flats campground on the right\, look for Angeles Falls Road. There is access through the divider at this point\, so you can turn left and park hopefully closer to the trail head. There is a gate across Angeles Falls road and porta potties. This is the trail head. The road up to Baldy is VERY curvy with VERY tight turns. Anybody who does not like twisty roads with dropoffs should be a passenger! \nPLEASE – Know your limits and abilities. Bring and drink plenty of liquids when hiking. Check weather conditions and dress accordingly and be aware of your surroundings at all times. Watching out for snakes\, ticks\, uneven footing\, spectacular views\, beautiful fauna all while carrying on a conversation with awesome (usually) fellow hikers can be extremely hazardous\, rewarding and fun. \n******************************************************************* \nVHC HIKE RATING SCALE \nRating a hike is subjective\, meaning the difficulty of a hike will be in direct relation to how often you hike and the type of hike you prefer. Keep in mind that any hike can have the following: un-even hiking surfaces\, various obstructions\, water and/or water crossings or bouldering and/or rock hopping. A great hike will have all of these! \n1 – A long walk \n2 – 4 mile hike w/little elevation gain \n3 – 5 mile hike w/up to1000 ft. elevation gain \n4 – 5+ mile hike w/up to1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increases at times) \n5 – 7+ mile hike w/over 1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increasing even more at times) \n6 – 7+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be trying to remember how to perform CPR) \n7 – 5+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be muttering expletives to yourself) \n8 – 10+ mile hike w/over 3500 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be angry with the hike leader) \n9 – 10+ mile hike w/over 5000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be thinking of reporting the hike leader to the authorities) \n10 – Use your imagination \nClass 3 Scrambling: Scrambling or un-roped climbing. You must use your hands at times to hold the terrain or find your route. This may be caused by a combination of boulders\, steepness and extreme terrain. Some Class 3 routes have ropes in place for assistance. \nDISCLAIMER / RELEASE OF LIABILITY \nIMPORTANT\, PLEASE READ BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY: \nI am a volunteer (i.e. not liable for the group). Safety is a priority for everyone in the group. Think of this as hiking with a group of friends. \nOutdoor sports and other events we plan can be inherently dangerous and accidents may happen. By participating in any posted event\, you’re taking responsibility for your own safety and well-being. The Valencia Hiking Crew Meetup Group and its organizers are not trained leaders and we do not confirm the qualifications of any of its members to lead or participate in trips. All participants take full responsibility for their own actions.

SUMMARY:Baron Ranch Trails on Gaviota Coast - Post-hike Coastal Picnic
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever heard of the Baron Ranch hiking trails? Most folks haven’t\, but it’s a splendid — and sometimes shady — trail a couple miles west of Refugio State Beach and it’s worth the trip. \nAnd if that’s not enough\, we’ll have a picnic at Refugio SB after the hike where Ann and I have reserved two campsites. \nThe hike is about a 6.9 mile lollipop with 1\,300′ total ascent and is rated MEDIUM. See the hike rating guide at https://www.hikingwithdean.com/hike-rating-guide/ \nOur hike begins in the canyon that forms the Arroyo Quemado Creek watershed. The trail follows a network of ranch roads leading through a habitat restoration area and into the backcountry. \nThe first mile of the trail is relatively flat and follows the bottom of the canyon. Just beyond the one-mile mark the road transitions into the riparian zone and continues to parallel the creek\, it’s here that the trail starts to take on a more wilderness feel. \nAt 2.1 miles and 2.6 miles\, the trail splits to form a loop up into the mountains. The upper portion of the Loop Trail provides some exceptional vistas down the canyon and out towards the ocean with views of the island on a clear day. Views along the canyons open up to reveal the Pacific Ocean and the Channel Islands. At the top of the loop\, the single-track section of the Loop Trail trail connects again to a ranch road and then returns to the beginning of the loop and the main trail. \n[Note. The trail is currently closed until 9/17 due to the recent restrictions placed on California’s National Forests in order to prevent fire activity.] \nDIRECTIONS \n– Take Hwy 101 North\, 2.4 miles past Refugio Road and exit\n– Turn right at the road crossing onto Arroyo Quemada Ln. (Watch for the yellow sign indicating “cross-traffic ahead”).\n– Immediately turn left onto Calle Real and proceed approximately 3/4 mile until the road reaches a street sign that says “End”.\n– Use the circle to turn around and park along Calle Real.

We’ll be stopping at the 3/4 point by a picnic table\, so please bring food and drink to share\, and any utensils your items might require. \nWe have had occasions where there were no utensils\, so it might be wise to at least bring your own. \nWe start at the Conejo Canyons Trailhead at Conejo Center Dr in Newbury Park (1993 Rancho Conejo Blvd.). \nWe’ll hike downhill from the trailhead for 0.6 miles. We’ll continue uphill for 0.6 miles on the Western Plateau trail. We’ll regather at the top of the Peninsula Trail. \nThe trail will be rolling for the next 1 mile\, then drops 360 ft over the next 1/2 mile. At the bottom of the Western Plateau trail\, we’ll take a sharp right up Hawk Canyon. Our picnic spot is 1/4 mile up Hawk Canyon at the table under the trees. \nAfter the potluck\, we’ll continue up Hawk Canyon in our clockwise loop for 0.6 mile where the trail ends back at the Western Plateau trail. Take a left up the hill back to Conejo Center Dr. \n** If you plan on leaving before the group\, please familiarize yourself with the planned route\, which is posted with this description. \nThe Hike: \nDistance: 4.2 milesGain: 700′Distribution: Well distributed.Difficulty (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879781): Beginner.Shape: Lollipop.Pace: 2.0 mph.Trail Type: Fire road and single track.Trail Variations: Rolling stroll and ramp.Duration: 3.5 hoursDogs: Yes.Restrooms: NoDrinking Fountains: No.Parking: Free along street. \nWhat to bring: \n1 liter of water for every 3 miles.Snacks and/or beverages to share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772).Hiking shoes preferred\, but athletic shoes will be OK.Flashlight or headlamp.Sunscreen and/or hat as needed. \nHosting \nRoute: The host knows the route.

SUMMARY:Rocky Peak - Intermediate
DESCRIPTION:5 miles\, 1200′ gain\, Intermediate \nThis hike is one of the most well known in Simi Valley. It contains beautiful sandstone formations throughout the hike and there are fantastic views of the valleys. There is really no way to get lost because there are no junctions. If one chooses\, they can turn around and return to the beginning at any point during this climb. \nThe beginning and end of this hike contain continuous and steep inclines (about 1000 steps each). Still\, it’s a fire road\, so it’s not steeper than a truck can climb. There is nothing wrong with taking short breaks during these climbs and doing it slowly. \nFit beginners can do it but will most likely find these sections tiring. The rest of the hike also contains several sections of continuous incline\, although not as steep. \nI personally have led beginners on this hike. Most completed the hike\, but not without some cursing and adding perhaps 30 minutes to the climb time. This is not a problem\, since it is neither a race nor conditioning hike\, but those that want to make a workout out of the hike are welcome to proceed ahead of the group at their own pace. \nWe’ll stop at the 1/3 point (0.8 miles)\, where the Hummingbird trail finishes into Rocky Peak. There is a bench there. We’ll let others catch up. \nThen we’ll continue for 1.5 miles to a couple large rocks at the top\, then past them to a flat cement platform. There\, we’ll share snacks and beverages (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772)\, enjoy the views\, engage in a social interaction\, and rest before returning. The climb to the top usually takes about an hour. \nIt can get windy at the top and cool in the evening\, so I would recommend bringing something light to put on. \nInteresting Notes: \nHere are a couple plants you are sure to see on this hike: \nCalifornia Sagebrush \nAromatic when crushed. AKA\, common sage\, coastal sage. Sunflower family. Cowboys used to ride through it and brush up against the pine-shaped leaves\, coming home with the smell on their clothes and giving rise to the nickname “Cowboy Cologne.” Not a true sage. Can be used as a cooking spice and can be made into a tea. Tear off some needles by running your hand up the stalk and smell the aroma. \nPurple Sage \nGrey-green leaves. Aromatic when crushed. Purple flowers. Aka\, Tobacco Sage\, with mild hallucinogenic properties when smoked. Can be used as a spice or made into a tea. Tea has medicinal affects: Antiviral\, gargle for sore throats\, reduce hay fever symptoms and other drying actions. In the last summer\, fall\, and winter months\, the flowers will have turned brown and the leaves we take on a greyer color. \nDirections:Rocky Peak TrailSimi Valley\, CA 9306534.268396\, -118.636139 \nFrom the 118Exit Rocky Peak Rd.Trailhead on the north side.Park either at the trailhead (limited parking)\, or south of the freeway along Santa Susanna Pass Rd. \nFrom the 101 @ CA-23North CA-23 for 8.4 miles.East I-118 for 14 miles.Exit 32 Rocky Peak Rd.Trailhead on the north side (left).Park either at the trailhead (limited parking)\, or south (right) of the freeway along Santa Susanna Pass Rd. \nThe Hike:Distance: 5 miles\, 3.5 hoursElevation Gain: 1200′Difficulty: IntermediatePace: 2.0 mphDogs: Yes if leashed\, per State lawRestrooms: NoDrinking Fountains: NoParking: Free at the trailhead (limited parking\, not recommended as you can get a ticket after sunset for parking there) or across the freeway 500′.Trail: Fire road.Purpose: Social \nWhat to Bring:1-2 liters of water.Snacks and/or beverages to share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772).Hiking shoes preferred\, but athletic shoes will be OK.Flashlight or headlamp. \nDisclaimer / Release of Liability:https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/pages/29622459/Is_Hiking_Dangerous/

Well\, here’s another chance to enjoy this area below pinyon pine covered ridges as we use another easy canyon to access them. Of all the treks in the Razorbacks\, this was the most rewarding. This trek will be geared for intermediate hikers who love exploring. We’ll all be heading deep into a Razorback Bowl to enjoy what nature has carved out there. We’ll explore another canyon that we missed doing last time there. \nCheck out the photos posted on our last trip there:https://www.meetup.com/Westlake-Village-Hiking-Meetup-Group/photos/31183535/493787193/ \nMEETUP LOCATION AND TIME:The Flying J Travel Center in Lebec at 8:00 am:https://www.google.com/maps/place/34%C2%B049’00.4%22N+118%C2%B053’10.2%22W/@34.8167674\,-118.8883557\,918m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m17!1m10!4m9!1m3!2m2!1d-119.1365275!2d34.7489344!1m3!2m2!1d-119.1584843!2d34.7287962!3e0!3m5!1s0x0:0x0!7e2!8m2!3d34.8167631!4d-118.8861666From here we’ll all caravan to the canyon where we will start the hike. \nTERRAIN: No\, this isn’t Utah\, but it sure seems like it.

SUMMARY:Hondo Canyon - Fossil Ridge - PacBell Tower
DESCRIPTION:Another spectacular section of the Backbone Trail this hike includes staggering views of pink colored sedimentary rock formations\, beautifully shaded live oak\, streams and a sloping green meadow. Its perhaps one of the shadiest sections of the Backbone Trail. At the top we will see many fossils in the sandstone. \nInstead of the usual destination – the graffiti covered Topanga Lookout – we will head over to the old PacBell towers. \nThis is a 9 mile hike with over 1500 ft elevation gain and is rated DIFFICULT due to terrain. See the Hike Rating guide https://www.hikingwithdean.com/hike-rating-guide/ \nHighlights include the sedimentary rock formations known as the Sespe Formation\, Hondo canyon’s pink “V” gourge\, Topanga Lookout and the Bragg home in the Bay Tree Woodland. (Paul C. Bragg was a pioneer in the health food movement in California. He had a chain of health food stores and popular radio shows in the 30?s and 40?s. He was the inspiration and teacher for later healthy living teachers like Jack LaLanne. His abandoned vacation cabin was here until the early 1990s\, but was burned in the 1993 fire). \nDIRECTIONS: \nMeet at backbone trailhead on south side of Old Topanga Road\, 1/4 mile west of Topanga Canyon. Park on south side of street \nClose-by parking is limited — be early!

SUMMARY:Long Canyon - Easy CC Loop - Suitable for Fit Beginners
DESCRIPTION:3 miles\, 650′ gain\, fit beginner. \nThere is one extended climb in the middle of the hike that is relatively mild (it is fire road) but continues for about a mile. Being a fire road\, steepness is limited to that which a vehicle can climb. \nStarting from the Long Canyon trailhead parking lot\, we head west on the Woodridge Connector along the sides of houses. Note that is not heading UP from the trail head. This is a relatively flat section for about 3/4 mile. \nLeft at the asphalt along Woodridge Loop Trail\, immediate right at the split\, then continue until it comes to an end at a junction. Left and continue to another junction. Make a right\, go about 50′ to another junction\, make a right again\, then 300′ to Autumn Ridge Trail. \nLeft and continue for about a mile. This is a fire road and a steady climb. We continue until 5-points junction. \nMake a hard left onto Sunrise trail\, then up to the bench. There\, we’ll stop for a snack and beverage share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772). \nFor the return\, we’ll turn right and follow Long Canyon Trail back to the parking lot. \nA picture of the route is posted at the end of the description. \nInteresting Notes: \nTake notice of the Eucalyptus tree at the trailhead. \nAlong the left side of the trail during the last 200′ (last because we are doing a counter-clockwise loop)\, you will see: \nWhite Sage – the leaves are very fragrant when pinched \nElderberry – The blue or purple berries can be made into elderberry wine\, jam\, syrup\, and pies. \nHike \nDistance: 3 milesGain: 650Distribution: A moderate fire-road climb at the middle portion of the hike.Difficulty (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879781): Fit Beginner.Shape: Loop\, counter-clockwise.Pace: 2.0 mph.Trail Type: Fire road\, single and double track. Areas of sand\, gravel\, and rock\, some of it rugged.Trail Variations:The beginning is a flat walk.The middle will have an extended incline of about 1000 steps.The end is downhill\, but somewhat steep.Duration: 3.5 hoursDogs: Yes.Restrooms: NoDrinking Fountains: No.Parking: Free in the paved parking area in front of the trail head. \nWhat to bring:1 liter of water for every 3 miles.Snacks and/or beverages to share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772).Hiking shoes preferred\, but athletic shoes will be OK.Flashlight or headlamp.Sunscreen and/or hat as needed. \nHosting \nRoute: The host knows the route.Navigation: Host memory\, enhanced by GPS navigation as needed.Hike type: Social.We won’t be hiking at a fast pace because this is a social hike\, not a conditioning hike. There is nothing wrong with stopping\, even if it means every 50 steps. See “How hard is this hike” in the discussion section (LINK (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879781)). \nStops:The host may designate stopping points to let others catch up. This hike will include an extended stop for a snack and beverage share just before the last segment down (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772) at the half way point. \nWe will stop at junctions to make sure everybody makes any turns or chooses the correct direction at splits\, else something will be used to mark the direction\, usually a large arrow made of baking soda or some sticks in the shape of an arrow. There may not always be a sweeper designated to be the last hiker. \nEach hiker is responsible for knowing their capability\, only attending events where they are able to sustain the described pace\, for keeping up with the group sufficiently enough to make the turns and not get left behind\, and for making sure the host is notified if they are going to split from the group. \nGroup separation:Sometimes hikers wish to move significantly ahead and not wait at designated stopping points. Please let the host know. They are on their own regarding route and navigation. \nDirections: \nWhere Long Canyon Rd. and S. Wood Ranch Pkwy. intersect in Simi Valley. There is a free paved parking lot at the trailhead on the southwest corner. \nFrom CA-23 and I-101:North CA-23\, exit Olsen Rd.Right (east) on Olsen Rd.\, which becomes Madera Rd.\, for 2 miles.Right (south) on N. Wood Ranch Pkwy.\, which becomes S. Wood Ranch Pkwy.\, for 2 miles.Right at dead end (intersection with Long Canyon Rd.) and immediate left into parking lot. \nFrom CA-118 and CA-27:West CA-118\, exit 23 onto 1st St.Left (south) on 1st St.\, which becomes Long Canyon Rd.\, for 5 miles.Cross at dead end (intersection with S. Wood Ranch Pkwy.) and immediate left into parking lot. \nCoordinates of trailhead: 34.228330\, -118.803130Address of a nearby house: 597 Shadow Ln.\, Simi Valley\, CA 93065 \nArrive early\, because sometimes the parking lot gets full. If this happens\, we’ll need another 15 minutes to carpool from a nearly parking lot. \nDisclaimer / Release of Liability:https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/pages/29622459/Is_Hiking_Dangerous/

DESCRIPTION:https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/stunt-high-trail \nHello Fellow Hikers\,This trail looks so pretty a lot of shaded areas with oak trees that line the side of the trail. And open meadow sections. Also sections with gradual climbs. The trail will end at Mulholland drive will we will make our way back. Now there are two trails in this area we will be following Stunt High Trail as it’s more shaded and on this day the temps are supposed to be heating back up. Some reviews on AllTrails is referring to the second trail which is a bit harder of a hike with zero shade. I attached the AllTrails link for directions\, pics\, and stats https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/stunt-high-trail \nTrail out and backMiles 4.2Elevation Gain 954 ftRated moderateDogs allowed \nWe will always follow Jim’s Golden Rules:1) Hike your own hike2) Please stop at every junction and split to wait for others to catch up \nPlease remember to bring all essentials you’ll need for a hike \nAnd last….The Organizer\, Co Organizer\, Assistant Organizers and Event hosts in this group are not professional guides.

SUMMARY:La Jolla Valley - Chumash - Ray Miller Loop
DESCRIPTION:Details\nJoin us and the small animals and birds of La Jolla Canyon on this loop hike with panoramic views of coastline and The Channel Islands. Flower blooms in the spring are phenomenal. One of the the main attractions are large swaths of native California grassland — some of the last remaining unspoiled areas in the state. \n\n\n  13%	\n      \n            \n      \n                    \n              EverBrite Rechargeable Headlamp - 350 Lumens Headlight with Red/Green Light and ...          \n          \n                    $15.98          $13.90 (As of: 2025/08/28 5:00 pm - Details)\n                              View on Amazon      \n    \n  	\n              	\n\n  ×Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on https://www.amazon.com/ at the time of purchase will apply to the purchase of this product.\nBecause of the continued closure of the canyon trail up to the waterfall we are going to do this in a special way. We’ll meet on PCH at the entrance to the canyon and walk 2 miles down the ocean side of scenic PCH to the Chumash Trail. Several years ago PCH flooded out and broke up and had to be realigned — we’ll walk along the old broken PCH. \n  \n \nAlong the way we’ll have the opportunity to come face to face with Mugu Rock! You’ve seen it in the distance\, now you will be able to touch it. \n \nConsider the walk along PCH a warmup to the strenuous Chumash Trail. The Chumash trail is an ancient trail which leads from the Pacific Ocean to La Jolla Valley. It was used by the Chumash 7000 years ago\, and believed to be the oldest trail still in continuous use in the Santa Monica Mountains. \nThis trail is very strenuous with almost 1\,000 feet gain in only 0.6 miles. But the views from the top are spectacular \n \n  \nAfter we climb the Chumsh Trail we’ll swing around the Pt Mugu Peak Trail and bag Mugu Peak. We’ll take a group photo at the flag pole. Every year on 9/11\, since 2002\, chief selects from the Naval Base Ventura County replace the flag on Mugu Peak. The previous flag is retired in a ceremony on the base. \n \n  \nAfter descending the peak we’ll head into the grasslands of La Jolla Valley \n \nWe’ll be taking our break at the hike-in campsite. There is a fancy outhouse there. One of the highlights along the way is this pond. Will there be water this week? Naw. \n \nAfter our lunch break we’ll hike along the ridge separating Sycamore Canyon and La Jolla Canyon. We’ll return to our cars via the Ray Miller Trail – the western terminus of the Backbone Trail \nHere us the view from the Ray Miller Trail \n \n[vc_message message_box_color=”warning”]HIKE IS ABOUT 12 MILES WITH ABOUT 2\,200 FT TOTAL ASCENT AND IS RATED DIFFICULT due to mileage and terrain. See the HIKE RATING GUIDE[/vc_message] \nBring at least 2qt water\, snacks/lunch \nDirections to Trailhead\nThere is free parking on PCH near park entrance. If you have to park inside there is an iron ranger that accepts credit cards\, or maybe even a human at the gate. We’ll meet at park entrance on PCH \nFrom Los Angeles\, after a long and relaxing drive down the Pacific Coast Highway (22 miles past Malibu Canyon)\, you’ll enter Ventura County and pass the so-called “Great Sand Dune.” Across the street from Thornhill Broome Beach is the entrance to La Jolla Canyon. It is very clearly marked. Park on PCH on either side of entrance. \nFrom Ventura: Entrance is a couple miles after Las Posas. Park on land side of PCH on either side of entrance.

SUMMARY:Cheseboro Canyon MTB trail potluck hike - fit beginner
DESCRIPTION:Fit Beginner\, 4.3 miles\, 480′ gain. \nIf it’s too hot\, we’ll change the return and make this an out-and-back instead of a loop\, which lowers the gain to 230′. \nThis is a pot luck picnic. Please also bring something to eat and drink\, and a little extra to share. If your item requires it\, bring plates and utensils to share and your own cup\, plate and utensils.We’ll share snacks and drinks (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772) for about 60 minutes\, then return by completing the loop (or returning the way we came if it’s very hot). \nFun Facts \nSo what is MTB?Answer: Mountain Bike (not Mountain Terrain Bike)Ref: https://pedalchile.com/blog/mtb-meaningThe name I see on a map is: Chesebro Canyon MTB Trail \nHosting \nRoute: The host knows the route. A pic of the route has been posted as part of this description. \nNavigation: Host memory\, enhanced by GPS navigation as needed \nHike type: Social.We won’t be hiking at a fast pace because this is a social hike\, not a conditioning hike. There is nothing wrong with stopping\, even if it means every 50 steps. \nStops:We will stop at junctions to make sure everybody makes any turns or chooses the correct direction at splits\, else something will be used to mark the direction. \nEach hiker is responsible for knowing their capability\, only attending events where they are able to sustain the described pace\, for keeping up with the group sufficiently enough to make the turns and not get left behind. \nInteresting Notes \nHere are a couple plants you are sure to see on this hike: \nBlack SageMultiple brown buttons going up the top of the stalk\, that may have white flowers. Green leaves. Purple or white flowers that are dark brown as they dry on the plant. Squish the leaves and smell. \nA rare and sought after Black sage honey is also made from the honey of bees that pollinate the Black sage plant. Black sage is utilized in the culinary world as an aromatic and flavorful herb. It can be used in recipes wherever traditional sage is called for\, however keep in mind that foraged Black sage has a much stronger flavor than that of traditional store bought sage. \nIts flavor goes well with winter squashes\, brown butter\, poultry\, venison\, pears\, cheese\, potatoes and other herbs such as rosemary and thyme. Use fresh in a variety of different preparations or leaves. Can be dried and stored for future use as a dried herb. Black sage was used traditionally by Native Americans known as the Chumash people to form an herbal soak for the bath to be used in the treatment of bodily pain\, specifically for the feet and lower legs. \nYellow Star ThistleThorny. Also called yellow cockspur and golden star thistle. Generally considered a weed. Long-term ingestion by horses causes a neurological disorder known as chewing disease\, a lethal lesion of the nigropallidal region of the brain. This disease is expressed as a twitching of the lips\, tongue flicking\, and involuntary chewing. Permanent brain damage is possible\, and affected horses may starve to death. Used in Turkish folk medicine for the treatment of ulcers. In a laboratory study\, aqueous extracts of fresh or dried flowers of yellow star thistle given orally showed significant antiulcerogenic activity in rats. \nDirections \n0.4 miles from the corner of Cheseboro and Palo Comado Cyn Rd.There is parking off the street at this location. After the 1 lane bridge\, you’ve gone too far. \nCheseboro Canyon MTB trail5402 Chesebro Rd\, Agoura Hills\, CA 91301 \nFrom I-101:Exit Chesebro Rd..Palo Comado Canyon Rd.Continue north.

SUMMARY:EBIKE RIDE - REFUGIO ROAD and SANTA BARBARA STATE BEACHES
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.NEED HELP:go to: https://wp.me/P9MbG4-hC \nTHE ULTIMATE EBIKE RIDE up beautiful Refugio Rd. and SANTA BARBARA STATE BEACHS \nThis time we will be heading into a remote area of Santa Barbara County. In Spring this is a beautiful area to see\, but it still will be nice to check it out at this time. Sure\, you can take a car along this paved road\, but you can’t enjoy it as much as what a bike ride offers. After biking Refugio road we’ll take the beach bike path between Refugio and El Capitan State Beachs and back. We can also add some additional mileage in the campgrounds. So\, join me on this exciting event. Road Bikes with strong riders are welcome.https://www.alltrails.com/explore/map/map-sep-28-07-29-pm-5a2a330Make sure you bring along a spare inner tube. \nMEETUP LOCATION AND TIME: Meet at 9:00am at site below:https://www.google.com/maps/place/34%C2%B028’01.0%22N+120%C2%B004’07.2%22W/@34.4669454\,-120.0693474\,291m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m22!1m15!4m14!1m8!2m2!1d-120.1945932!2d34.5287467!3m4!1m2!1d-120.1459206!2d34.5880421!3s0x80e953587346ca11:0xeae455cf9583cece!1m3!2m2!1d-120.0818546!2d34.5551858!3e0!3m5!1s0x0:0x0!7e2!8m2!3d34.4669435!4d-120.0686571 \nPARKING FEE: It’s FREE! \nDISTANCE: 26 miles maximum distance\, less if my battery doesn’t last \nDURATION: 6 hours \nELEVATION GAIN: 3000′ – It’s a demanding route for regular bikes\, but with our ebikes we’ll take on as much elevation gain as our weakest ebike (that’s mine) and/or ebiker (?) can handle.

SUMMARY:Talopop - Suitable for fit beginners
DESCRIPTION:Fit Beginner\, 4.1 miles\, 720′ gain. \nIs it Talepop or Talopop? Maps and signs that I have seen\, use the 2nd spelling\, but a lot of references use the other. \nThere are several portions with extended inclines that will make a beginner hiker stop for a breather. \nThere is nothing wrong with stopping\, even if it means every 50 steps. A couple of the inclines\, while not extreme\, continue for about 1000 steps\, and there are also several hills that are about 100 steps each. We won’t be hiking this trail at a fast pace because this is a social hike\, not a conditioning hike. See “How hard is this hike” in the discussion section (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879781). \nWe’ll meet in front of the facilities building at the center of the park. This is a lollipop hike. \nSome of the hike is fire road\, and a lot of the hike is single-track. Some has complete exposure to the sun\, and some is through shaded wooded areas. \nWe’ll head behind the facilities building in the center and head left down the Las Virgenes Trail. After 1/3 mile\, the trail turns 90 degrees\, we continue on the easier route for 1/10th mile instead of taking the trail that climbs the hill. After we cross the dry creek bed where a bridge used to be\, we turn right and it becomes the Talopop Trail. \nWe’ll follow it around for another 1.8 miles until it dead ends at a fire road\, Liberty Canyon Trail. There\, we’ll wait for others to catch up\, and we can share some beverages and/or snacks (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772) before continuing. \nWe’ll turn left and after 1/3 mile\, the trail dead ends again at Las Virgenes Fire Road. We’ll turn left again and travel 1.1 miles where we’ll hit another junction\, turning right back onto Las Virgenes Trail for the final 0.4 mile return\, making a left at the split right behind the facilities building. \nInteresting Notes: \nHere are a couple plants you are sure to see on this hike: \nBlack Sage \nMultiple brown buttons going up the top of the stalk\, that may have white flowers. Green leaves. Purple or white flowers that are dark brown as they dry on the plant. Squish the leaves and smell. \nA rare and sought after Black sage honey is also made from the honey of bees that pollinate the Black sage plant. Black sage is utilized in the culinary world as an aromatic and flavorful herb. It can be used in recipes wherever traditional sage is called for\, however keep in mind that foraged Black sage has a much stronger flavor than that of traditional store bought sage. \nIts flavor goes well with winter squashes\, brown butter\, poultry\, venison\, pears\, cheese\, potatoes and other herbs such as rosemary and thyme. Use fresh in a variety of different preparations or leaves. Can be dried and stored for future use as a dried herb. Black sage was used traditionally by Native Americans known as the Chumash people to form an herbal soak for the bath to be used in the treatment of bodily pain\, specifically for the feet and lower legs. \nCalifornia Sagebrush – Artemesia Californica \nAromatic when crushed. AKA\, common sage\, coastal sage. Sunflower family. Cowboys used to ride through it and brush up against the pine-shaped leaves\, coming home with the smell on their clothes and giving rise to the nickname “Cowboy Cologne.” Not a true sage. Can be used as a cooking spice and can be made into a tea. Tear off some needles by running your hand up the stalk and smell the aroma. \nAn infusion can be made for an insect repellent. \nDirections: \nTalopopJuan Bautista de Anza Park3701 Lost Hills RoadCalabasas\, CA 91301 \nFrom the 118 \nWest to CA-23 southCA-23 south for 7.4 milesUS-101 east for 9.5 milesExit 33 Lost Hills Rd.Lost Hills Rd. south for 0.2 milesPark on the right. \nFrom the 101 \nExit 33 Lost Hills Rd.Lost Hills Rd. south for 0.2 milesPark on the right. \nThe Hike: \nDistance: 4.1 miles\, 3.5 hours\, counter-clockwiseElevation Gain: 720′Distribution: Reasonably well distributed\, some of the gain on the return portion.Shape: LollipopDifficulty: Easy-IntermediatePace: 2.0 mphDuration: 3.5 hoursDogs: NoRestrooms: Yes\, at the start.Drinking Fountains: Yes\, at the start.Parking: Free in the paved lot\, or along the street..Trail: Fire Road and single track\, good condition. \nHosting \nRoute: The host knows the route.Navigation: Host memory\, enhanced by GPS navigation as needed.Hike type: Social. \nThe description includes a picture of the route. Those that wish to return immediately instead of hanging around during the snack and beverage share\, should memorize the route so they can safely return on their own. \nStops:The host may designate stopping points to let others catch up. This hike will include an extended stop for a snack and beverage share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772) at the half way point. \nWe will stop at junctions to make sure everybody makes any turns or chooses the correct direction at splits\, else something will be used to mark the direction\, usually a large arrow made of baking soda or an arrow on the ground made of sticks. There may not always be a sweeper designated to be the last hiker. \nEach hiker is responsible for knowing their capability\, only attending events where they are able to sustain the described pace\, for keeping up with the group sufficiently enough to make the turns and not get left behind\, and for making sure the host is notified if they are going to split from the group. \nWhat to Bring:2 liters of water.Snacks and/or beverages to share (https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772).Hiking shoes preferred\, but athletic shoes will be OK.Flashlight or headlamp.Sunscreen and/or hat as needed. \nDisclaimer / Release of Liability:https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/pages/29622459/Is_Hiking_Dangerous/

SUMMARY:Mash Site - Malibu Creek State Park Potluck Hike
DESCRIPTION:Fit Beginner – 6 miles\, 600′ gain \nThis is a social hike and an out-and-back event. \nThere is a potluck at the M.A.S.H. site before we turn around for the return. If your item requires paper plates\, utensils\, etc. please bring them. \nPot Luck guidelines: https://www.meetup.com/Hiking-Plus/messages/boards/thread/50879772 \nWe will meet at the Grasslands trail head off of Mulholland Hwy and take the Grasslands Trail with a gentle climb and connect to the High Road (~3/4 miles). We’ll take a right and follow the High Road another 3/4 miles then take a right at Crag Road up a short 1/3 mile climb (170′ gain). At the top of the hill\, we’ll take a left turn down the short bypass trail to Century Lake. \nFrom Century Lake\, the trail is level all the way to the M.A.S.H. site. From the lake we’ll continue on Crag Road and at a 1/2 mile we’ll cross over Malibu Creek. The bridge over the creek is washed out\, so we’ll have cross over some fallen branches and rocks just beyond the bridge (I’m not sure of the water level or conditions of the creek\, so there is a chance you may get wet).

SUMMARY:Timber Mt- via Chapman Trail (Icehouse Cyn)
DESCRIPTION:Distance: 9> \nRating: 7/10\, not for beginners \nPace: Intermediate/advanced (will be at my pace) \nThere won’t be a sweeper!! \nElevation 2620’ gain \nParking permit-adventure pass required \nRain Cancels \nAccording to historian John Robinson\, the name “Icehouse Canyon” dates from the 1860s when an ice plant in the lower canyon supplied ice to valley residents. The ice business is long gone but the name is still fitting as frigid air often blows through the canyon and can even chill the hiker on an early summer morning; in the winter it can be a deep freeze. \nTestimony to the canyon’s grandeur is the significant number of visitors it draws. On a fair-weather weekend\, expect to share the trail with swarms of hikers. Even on a weekday you probably won’t have the trail to yourself. \n \nDirections: Check your local map to plan a route to the 210 freeway traveling east from Pasadena past the 57 freeway. As you enter the town of Upland\, exit at Base Line\, turn left on Base Line and take the first right on Padua Ave. Make a right on Mt. Baldy Road into the mountains towards Baldy Village. A couple miles after Baldy Village you will enter the parking lot for Ice House Canyon. The entrance to the parking lot is just before the road hairpins to the left up to the Chairlifts. Make sure you do not keep going up to the lifts. There is a little road block right there where a wonderful lil’ lady by the name a Dee Hanson sells honey\, and “National Forest Service Adventure Pass” parking permits. You will want to grab one of these permits for $5.00. Park your car in the parking lot making sure to display your pass in the windshield. \n******************************************************************* \nPLEASE – Know your limits and abilities. Bring snacks and drink plenty of liquids when hiking. Check weather conditions and dress accordingly and be aware of your surroundings at all times. Watching out for poison oak\, snakes\, ticks\, uneven footing\, spectacular views\, beautiful fauna all while interacting with awesome (usually) fellow hikers can be extremely hazardous\, rewarding and fun. \nVHC HIKE RATING SCALE \nRating a hike is subjective\, meaning the difficulty of a hike will be in direct relation to how often you hike and the type of hike you prefer. Keep in mind that any hike can have the following: un-even hiking surfaces\, various obstructions\, water and/or water crossings or bouldering and/or rock hopping. A great hike will have all of these! \n1 – A long walk \n2 – 4 mile hike w/little elevation gain \n3 – 5 mile hike w/up to1000 ft. elevation gain \n4 – 5+ mile hike w/up to1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increases at times) \n5 – 7+ mile hike w/over 1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increasing even more at times) \n6 – 7+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be trying to remember how to perform CPR) \n7 – 5+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be muttering expletives to yourself) \n8 – 10+ mile hike w/over 3500 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be angry with the hike leader) \n9 – 10+ mile hike w/over 5000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be thinking of reporting the hike leader to the authorities) \n10 – Use your imagination \nClass 3 Scrambling: Scrambling or un-roped climbing. You must use your hands at times to hold the terrain or find your route. This may be caused by a combination of boulders\, steepness and extreme terrain. Some Class 3 routes have ropes in place for assistance. \nDISCLAIMER / RELEASE OF LIABILITY \nIMPORTANT\, PLEASE READ BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY: \nI am a volunteer (i.e. not liable for the group). Safety is a priority for everyone in the group. Think of this as hiking with a group of friends. \nOutdoor sports and other events we plan can be inherently dangerous and accidents may happen.
