SUMMARY:Upper Sycamore Canyon Loop - A Gentler Hike
DESCRIPTION:This hike starts at the Rancho Sierra Vista parking lot\, goes down to the bridge on Sycamore Canyon asphalt\, but then turns up the canyon alongside Upper Sycamore Creek. Along the way\, we’ll be in the shade of Boney Mountain while we climb\, doing a handful of easy water crossings and finding a number of wildflowers along the way. We’ll get to the Old Boney Trail\, and climb back up and out\, taking a few detours along the way. \nOverall distance is 5 miles\, with an elevation loss and gain of about 800 feet. If you want a little more distance\, you’re welcome to take the short excursion to the waterfall\, but there’s more poison oak there. \nIf the weather forecast calls for temperatures in the 90s before 11 am\, this hike will be canceled. Please check Thursday morning before you drive over. \nI did this hike last weekend\, and didn’t see a ridiculous amount of poison oak – at least\, not that interfered with my hiking. I did see the beautiful cluster of Humboldt Lilies along the way\, but after a hot week\, I can’t guarantee we’ll see them again. \nIf another hike is posted for this date\, please sign up for only one. And if you can’t make it\, please change your RSVP to allow someone on the waitlist to take your place. \nPlease review our guidelines to participate in our hikes: \n\nDon’t show up unless you’re on the “Attending” list\nUnregistered or waitlisted will be turned away\nNo “Plus Ones” on this hike\nNo dogs allowed\, on leash\, in doggy backpacks\, etc.\nAnyone under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian\n\nDirections – DO NOT follow Google/Apple instructions!!\nTake 101 Freeway to Lynn Road. Go south 5.5 miles to the wood and stone archway for Rancho Sierra Vista\, and drive all the way in to the restrooms (the innermost parking lot). DO NOT follow Google or Apple instructions; they will lead you astray. \nEssentials\nPlease bring: at least one liter of water\, snacks\, an extra layer of clothing\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, and sunscreen and anything else you might need on the trail. \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.
