Hummingbird Trail Caves and Amazing Tunnel
Details
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A GUITAR HIKE!
We hike up the Hummingbird trail for a mile to the entrance to the tunnel cave, with 300 foot elevation gain
We will enter the tunnel and explore it going downhill. You will use your hands a lot. The tunnel is about 500 feet long, straight and around 6 feet in diameter. BRING A HEADLAMP OR FLASHLIGHT! There are skylights that let you escape if you chicken out. There is a bit of poison oak that is easy to avoid, if you follow my directions, upon exiting the tunnel.
After the tunnel we will take a steep 1 mile trail to the graffiti caves with the suspended benches. Elevation gain is 500 feet. WE MAY EXPLORE ANOTHER TUNNEL CAVE ON THE WAY!
We will return the way we came.
After the hike we will eat dinner at Campo's Burritos in Simi Valley on Tapo street
