Trails and fun rocks in Santa Susana Pass park
Details
Fellow monkeys: here are some favorites combined in a loop at Santa Susana Pass State Historic Park:
The Miranda Loop trail, 200 feet elevation gain; STOP FOR LUNCH
the Labyrinth rocks and maze, 300 feet elevation gain;
the Heart Rock;
the Old Stagecoach trail to Lilac Lane, 400 feet elevation gain;
the Rock Pile
--Moderately difficult hike and optional rock scrambling. Mild poison oak risk in one place but it's avoidable. Some wild oats might get in your socks. The usual risk of snakes...
--5 miles, approximately;
--Several slots and cracks to climb through or up. Occasional summer wildflowers
--dogs are allowed as long as owner is on a leash (but I do not recommend it)
