We'll hike to Santa Ynez Waterfall beginning at Trippet Ranch. Roughly 5.1 miles with some shade. There is a possibility of getting your shoes wet. Bring spare shoes and socks to change in the car.

There is some poison oak along the trail closer to the waterfall. After my scout, all passable. You can also bypass it by walking up/down stream, which I plan to do. But you can wear long sleeves if you’re worried.
