Join co-leaders Ken and Dee Himes on an early spring outing to San Pedro Valley County Park. We expect to see some early blooms: Montara manzanita (Arctostaphylos montaraensis), pink-flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum var. glutinosum), Indian paintbrush (Castilleja affinis) and others.
The trip will be a moderate 4-5-mile loop hike on the Hazelnut Trail, through coastal scrub and chaparral plus some riparian woodland. It will include an elevation gain and loss of about 600 feet and is expected to last until 4pm.
We’ll meet at 10am in front of the park’s Visitor Center. Bring warm and wet weather layers for coastal conditions. Trails may be slippery. Bring water and a lunch or snacks, and fluids. Heavy rain cancels. For more information contact at Dee Himes at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
