9th Annual Chatsworth Halloween Hike - Day Version
Details
We've been doing this one in Chatsworth/Twin Lakes since 2009. It's the scariest hike this side of Transylvania!
Due to ongoing development in the area our exact path is unknown, but I estimate it to be 3-4 miles with 700' elevation gain

Part of the hike will be on little-used trails. Long pants would be nice for some short segments, but not required for hike. Wear hiking shoes or boots. Expect the unexpected. If you are not an experienced hiker this hike may not be for you.
