Let's enjoy a 10-mile, 2000' gain trek through pine forest and open meadows to three peaks with panoramic views and interesting history and geology. Our first stop, Mt. Pinos, is the high point of Ventura County and center of the world for the indigenous Chumash. Next is Sawmill Mountain, high point of the Chumash Wilderness and possible high point of Kern County, from which we'll be able to view the San Andreas Fault as it travels northwest towards Carrizo Plain. Finally we'll summit nearby Grouse Mountain and return to our starting point. Full details and registration here: https://act.sierraclub.org/events/details?formcampaignid=701Po00001t5fvLIAQ .
