Bob Jones & Sycamore Crest Trails Hike
Details
Join us for this simple hike to the top of Ontario Ridge, a.k.a. Avila Ridge, and back.
We will start our journey down the paved Bob Jones trail, then cross to the Sycamore Crest Trail which takes us to the top of Ontario Ridge. Featured in my Warm Weather Hikes presentation, the trail is mostly shaded with patches of sun between the trees.
Weather looks favorable for amazing ocean views as we crest the ridge.
⚠️️ Last time we hosted this hike, parking was limited. Plan accordingly.
