Mount Rexmore trails now connect directly north to Santa Susana Pass Road through a new Trail.
Hikers can now use this trail to reach hike favorites to the north like Corriganville and Rocky peak Parks without walking on private property
The 120 acres was purchased in 2013 by a somewhat humble Meetup hike leader to save the wildlife migration corridor between the Santa Susana mountains and the Simi hills.
It is home to at least 40 types of native flowers, trees and sagebrush, plus deer, bobcats, lizards, hawks, rattlesnakes and Mountain lions.
(For more info and photos etc: see mountrexmore.com)
DISTANCE: 3 miles. Difficulty: moderate. Hike is all on trails and monkeying around on the nearby rocks is optional. Elevation gain is 600 feet.
THE USUAL STUFF: BRING ALL THE USUAL STUFF...I'M NOT YOUR MOM.... Bring clothing (sorry, nude hikes are a different Meetup group), 3 liters of water, hat, comfy shoes, snacks, guitar, all your troubles..., camera, etc
LEGAL STUFF: by going on this hike, you agree to assume all risks of hiking common in natural Los Angeles terrain, (such as wild animals, poison oak, rocky unstable footing and ticks), and that you will hold no one at Meetup, including the organizer, responsible for your safety. See the Meetup terms of service especially paragraphs 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3 https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027447252-Terms-of-Service
