September 10-Backbone Trail to Camp Josepho and Rustic Canyon. This is a gorgeous hike with ocean views, gorgeous canyons, dense wooded areas and a mere 900 feet of gain. The trail is good for the most part, with a few difficult areas where you will need to walk in the stream bed. It is a 6 mile loop and will take about 3 hours. The hike is near Pacific Palisades. Bring water, lunch, snacks, bug nets or spray (optional but helpful), poles (optional but helpful) Meet at Towsley Canyon park outside the gates at 7:30 AM to carpool or at the trail head at 8:15 in the front parking lot of Will Rodgers State Park. Directions to Trailhead: From the San Fernando Valley, take the 405 south to Sunset, turn right (toward the beach), and in 7 miles turn right into Will Rogers State Park. Drive to the end of the almost 1 mile long entrance road. The trail head is at the back of the front parking lot of Will Rogers State Park. The parking fee at the park is $12 for the day ($11 for seniors).
