The hike meanders thru oak trees and winding trails, around several rock formations approx 5.5 MILES roundtrip past Eagle Rock. 800 Ft elevation gain. GREAT for beginners. We'll stop on top of Eagle rock for at least a half hour to rest / relax / snack and check out a couple small caves.

Should take AROUND 3 - 3.5 hours AT A RELAXED PACE.

We'll leave at 12:15 sharp
