SUMMARY:Rancho Sierra Vista Beginner Hike
DESCRIPTION:Instead of our usual starting point at the Rancho Sierra Vista trailhead for SAMO\, this shorter\, beginner hike will start at the newer COSCA trailhead lot\, 1.5 miles west of the intersection of Lynn and Reino in Newbury Park. See photo for what to look for off of Lynn Road. Note: This is NOT the National Park Service lot. \nBeginner hikes are intended for those new to hiking\, or new to the area. Preference will be given to attendees who have not hiked with us regularly. \nWe’ll do a loop around the flats and heights south of Lynn Road between Dos Vientos and the historical Guadalasca / Broome Ranch. We’ll see the remaining wildflowers\, probably some equestrians\, and a glimpse into the privately-owned canyons west of Sycamore Canyon and north of Hidden Pond. \nTotal distance is 4 miles\, with an elevation gain and loss of 500′\, shorter and less elevation than WTB’s usual “Gentler” Thursday hikes. We will hike at a little more than 2 miles per hour\, and will stop at intersections where we might lose stragglers. Weather is forecast to be in the low 80’s on Thursday\, so please be prepared for walking\, some climbs and descents\, and our hiking speed. If you’re unsure about whether you can make 4 miles on our route\, please feel free to contact me to discuss. \nIn some climbs / descents\, the trail has some loose rock\, and we will encounter sweet-smelling\, dehydrated horse poop – please wear appropriate hiking shoes or boots. Be sure to bring sun protection and plenty of water\, as there is little shade on our route. \nDIRECTIONS: \nExit Ventura Fwy (101) at Lynn Road\, and travel southwest 6 miles\, past the National / State Park entrance\, and past the two equestrian center driveways. The left turn into the COSCA lot is 1.5 miles past the stoplight at Reino Road. If you get to the Potrero Road descent to CSUCI\, turn around! There are water fountains\, and vault toilets with soap and sinks\, at the trailhead. \nDISCLAIMER / RELEASE OF LIABILITY\nIMPORTANT\, PLEASE READ BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY: \nThe hike host is a volunteer and not responsible for the group. Safety should be a priority for everyone in the group. Please treat this meet-up as hiking with a group of friends. If you become fatigued and unable to continue the hike\, it is expected you will advise the hike host of this and return to our starting point on your own. If you are able to proceed\, it is expected that you will maintain line of sight with other members of the group at all times and help to promote the group’s safety and fitness goals. \nOutdoor sports and other events we plan can be inherently dangerous and accidents may happen. By participating in any posted event\, you are taking responsibility for your own safety and well-being. The Weekday Trailblazers 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. \nIf you choose to sign up for this or any Weekday Trailblazers Meetup event\, you are releasing the Weekday Trailblazers Meetup Group and its organizers from all liability in case of possible injuries. Your personal safety depends on your own judgment and experience. \nPlease review our guidelines to participate in our hikes. Restrictions apply for your safety and ours: \n\nDon’t show up unless you’re on the “Attending” list\nNo “Plus Ones” on this hike\nSorry\, no dogs\, even in doggy backpacks.\nPlan on completing the entire hike at a reasonable pace or please find an alternative hike that better suits your hiking level\nAll participants must be 18 or older\, or accompanied by a parent or legal guardian
