Learn why this is one of the best two Simi hikes! We will be hiking on eroded ranch roads and little-used goat and cow trails through oak woodlands and along a creek. On the way we will come across grazing cattle, marine fossils and the old Coquina Mine. At the abandoned limestone mining operation, atop a peak, you can sit in the operator’s seat of a large steam shovel. On a clear day you can see the ocean from atop the ridgeline.
