Details
FOLLOWED BY DINNER:
The hike will be followed by dinner at the Reel Inn at 7:30, located at PCH and Topanga canyon blvd. (1/2 hour drive from trailhead)
THE DEETS:
THERE IS A NEW BYPASS TRAIL (DEC 2018) WHICH GETS YOU AROUND THE MOST CHALLENGING PARTS AND YOU GET TO SEE SOME NEWLY FOUND CAVES!!!! -------------------
MOST IMPORTANT, BUT CRYPTIC DETAILS: DIFFICULTY: a bit hard, there will be lots of rock scrambling (requiring use of your hands, but not ropes). There is some scratchy brush along part of the trail. --ALSO, bring leather gloves to keep your hands in one piece , ALTHOUGH I NEVER DO.
--PHOTOGENIC? Hell yes! EXTREMELY SCENIC!!
--DISTANCE: 3 miles round trip
--ELEVATION GAIN: 850 feet in one mile.
