Relatively easy mostly flat trail hike after initial short steep access down from the cul-de-sac at North end of Biltmore St. in North Clairemont.
We require your first name and YOUR true recognizable face picture showing on your profile here, for attendance at my IN PERSON hikes!
Wonderful initial forest-type canopy over the dirt trail alongside a little creek with ponds, until coming out into the main wide hiking trail in the center of San Clemente Canyon/Marion Bear Park.
Many huge sycamores and oaks in this City open-space park with a wide main trail and small stream with some ponds that may have minnows, tadpoles and some orange crawdads if you are lucky/observant enough and go in the wetter season.
Great place to exercise walk and commune with nature for a little while as we tune out any noise from Highway 52 which runs along the North side of San Clemente Canyon. There is some poison oak growing under the trees and off the trail, but we don't venture off the trail or into any bushes so we don't touch it.
Meet us BY 1pm at the North end of Biltmore St, at the trailhead post on sidewalk there.
Early parking in the cul-de-sac, later comers please park up the hill by Capehart St. Please don't block anyone's driveway!
Dress appropriate for the weather/temp ( any rain cancels ) and wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring a bottle of water and your camera, hat and sunscreen, binos if you like to see birds up close.
Park bathroom is about halfway along this hike. None at trailhead.
