What we’re about
Our vision is to create a network of outdoors enthusiasts to share our adventures, to learn from, to have fun with, and to create life long friends. We hike in the Santa Monica Mountains. This is a non profit organization and we will be donating back to the community by having beach cleanups. Our group is also committed to protecting the special places we hike. Our new conservation effort seeks to protect threatened areas in the local mountains through fun and easy actions we can take. Have fun Hiking and hope to see you soon!

😀Sunday Funday😀 - Palos Verdes Hike - Malaga Side/TOMATILLO 🍅for DINNER!
Malaga Cove School, 300 Paseo del Mar, Palos Verdes Estates, CA, USMixture of Lagoon, Trees, Ocean Views, Urban Walk and Beach walk
- START TIME: We usually have a 15 minutes grace period, but please try to arrive early due to parking.
- HIKE TYPE: This Hike is a LOOP with a bunch of trails pieced together. If you're late and do not know this hike, it will be difficult to help you find us.
- NOTE: The part that goes down to the Beach is slidy in some parts and may require "some people" to crab crawl on their bottoms. But many peole have done it without any issuses. You can by pass that part of the hike by going along the Road and following Google Maps back to the car. You'll miss the Tree Tunnel and the Beach, but everyone follow your heart. :)
- DISTANCE: ~6 miles
- DIFFICULTY: Everyone's feeling of difficulty is different. Maybe a 6.5 to 7 out of 10. We'll get a good work out and beautiful views. There is cell reception and if anyone wants to drop, they can use google maps to navigate their way back to the car. There is some scrambling down to the beach at the end. You can bypass it and go straight to the cars.

- PARKING: Public Parking next to Malaga Cove School

Music and Dancing with Neil Morrow & Memphis 54
Sagebrush Cantina, 23527 Calabasas Rd, Calabasas, 23527 23527 Calabasas Rd, 23527 23527 Calabasas Road ,, Calabasas, CA, USThere are fun things to do off the trail too...
Join us for a night out in Calabasas at the very fun Sagebrush Cantina! An SMHC favorite, Neil Morris & Memphis 54, who usually play occasional Sunday afternoons, are making a rare nighttime appearance. It's a great show with guest players and plenty of danceable music. The music ranges from the 70's to current, mostly rock with maybe a bit of country thrown in.
The Sagebrush Cantina is one of our local favorite hangouts. Slightly older crowd, great (reasonable) drinks and food, fun atmosphere. A good time for everyone. Casual attire.
The band starts at 8pm, but we'll be there between 8 and 9 to start, and will post our table in the comments. The band will play until midnight with DJ afterwards. Event "officially" ends at 11:30pm.
This is an "unstructured event" meaning come and go as you like, we'll just be hanging out enjoying the vibe.
$7 valet or self-parking. Some street parking and free lots about 1/2 mile away.
Please register so we know how many tables to try and grab!
