Location: Sandstone Peak Trailhead!!!

SANDSTONE PEAK is the HIGHEST point in the Santa Monica Mountains at 3,111 feet with gorgeous views of the ocean and Channel Islands. Kinda steep in places, but we'll be taking it a relaxed pace so there be time to take photos and enjoy the scenery. The LOOP is 7 miles. We're also exploring some CAVES at Tri-Peaks at the top.
