SUMMARY:Rattlesnake Canyon Trail
DESCRIPTION:Primarily on the Rattlesnake Canyon Trail\, this is an intermediate-level\, conditioning-oriented hike\, through and then above Rattlesnake Canyon to Gibraltar Rock. The hike offers ample room to stretch your legs\, elevation gain for fitness improvement\, and terrific views up and down. (If the pace is too slow for you\, there will be optional HIIT sessions on the flats and uphills.) \nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow the trail. The full roundtrip route is just under six miles\, with a respectable 1800 feet of gain/loss and a total hiking time of roughly 3 hours. Since our route is out and back\, and well-marked\, you can turn back earlier if you become winded or are short on time. \nOn this route\, the terrain is mostly single and double-track trail\, with a bit of pavement along Gibraltar Road near the halfway point. \nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight. \nHike Type: Conditioning\nLevel: Intermediate\nRoute Type: Out & back\nDistance: ~6 miles\nElevation gain/loss: ~1800 feet\nTerrain: Footpath and paved road\nLeashed dogs: Yes \nRoute summary: \nThis hike will take us up to 6 miles roundtrip\, through and then above Rattlesnake Canyon\, on the scenic and progressively athletic Rattlesnake Canyon Trail. \nOur route begins at the Rattlesnake Canyon trailhead\, by the stone bridge on Las Canoas Road. We start by proceeding north through the canyon for just under two miles\, gradually ascending and crossing the year-round creek a couple of times\, until we reach the junction to the Connector Trail. \nAt the junction\, we turn right to stay on Rattlesnake Canyon Trail and proceed easterly and upward more steeply for about a mile\, until we reach Gibraltar Road. Once we reach Gibraltar Road\, we walk north for about a quarter-mile until we reach our turnaround point at Gibraltar Rock. \nThe route initially offers a great coastal canyon experience\, with riparian forest and meadow\, as we make our way through Rattlesnake Canyon to the trail junction. After the junction\, the trail quickly becomes much steeper and provides steadily increasing and then panoramic views of the Santa Ynez range\, Santa Barbara\, and the Pacific and offshore islands. \nPlease note that Rattlesnake Canyon has some poison oak growing\, though it is easily avoided in the sections of the trail we will be following on this hike. That said\, you will need to walk attentively at some points on the trail and/or wear hiking pants\, especially if you are highly allergic. \nThe initial section of our hike is partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral. Since we begin in relatively sheltered areas and reach exposed areas above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy. \nWe will continue to our turnaround point\, stop to enjoy the great late-day or early-evening views of the Pacific\, offshore islands\, and surrounding coastal peaks. After our stop\, we will return to our starting point by the same route. \nEssentials: \nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear. \nPlease bring – at least 1 liter of water\, on-trail snacks\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp or flashlight\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail. \nParking: \nPlease parrallel park in the parking areas to the side of Las Canoas Road near the trailhead\, and please be considerate of the residents in this quiet neighborhood area. \nCarpooling is encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead. \nPlease do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead. \nDirections: \nBy car\, take your favorite way to the corner of Mission Canyon Road and Foothill Drive (Highway 192)\, such as heading north from the Mission Street exit off the 101. Where Mission Canyon Road meets Foothill Drive\, coming from the city\, drive east for 1/4 mile on Foothill until you reach the Mission Canyon Road extension. \nOnce you reach the Mission Canyon Road extension on Foothill\, head north for about 1/2 mile (do not turn left onto Tunnel Road) and take the very sharp right onto Las Canoas. Drive east for about a mile on Las Canoas\, and then park at the trailhead. If you come to the Botanical Gardens\, you have missed the sharp right onto Las Canoas. \nUnfortunately\, there is no public transportation close to this meetup location and the roads near the trailhead are not pedestrian-friendly.

SUMMARY:Sunset Hike | Jesusita Trail
DESCRIPTION:The hike offers ample room to stretch your legs\, elevation gain for fitness improvement\, and terrific views up and down. (If the pace is too slow for you\, there will be optional HIIT sessions on the flats and uphills.)\n\nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow the trail. The full roundtrip route is about seven miles\, with 1500 feet of gain/loss and a total hiking time of roughly 3 hours. Since our route is out and back\, and well-marked\, you can turn back earlier if you become winded or are short on time.\n\nOn this route\, the terrain is either dirt fire road or fairly well-tended single and double-track trail.\n\nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight.\n\nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there!\n\nHike Type: Conditioning\n\nLevel: Intermediate\n\nRoute Type: Out & back\n\nDistance: ~7 miles\n\nElevation gain/loss: ~1500 feet\n\nTerrain: Footpath and dirt road\n\nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\nRoute summary:\n\nThis hike will take us up to 7 miles roundtrip\, through and then above San Roque Canyon\, to Inspiration Point and its impressive views of Santa Barbara\, Goleta\, and the Pacific.\n\nOur route begins at the San Jesusita trailhead on San Roque Road\, proceeds along the mostly single-track Jesusita Trail for about three miles\, then follows a dirt utility road for just under a half mile\, and finally reaches Inspiration Point via a roughly 200-foot single-track trail.\n\nThe route is well-marked\, except for the first two forks and the final turnout to the point\, where we go right on the way out (left on the way back) in all three cases.\n\nOverall\, the route is steadily ascending\, rather than steep\, though there are a few moderately challenging sections and a few seasonal water crossings. The first couple of miles follow San Roque Canyon and offer a great riparian experience. The third mile is primarily switchbacks\, as we proceed up out of the canyon until reaching the dirt utility road near Inspiration Point.\n\nAs we ascend\, the route offers increasing views of the Santa Ynez mountains\, Santa Barbara and Goleta\, and the Pacific and offshore islands to the south and west.\n\nPlease note that San Roque Canyon has some poison oak growing\, though it is easily avoided in the sections of the trail we will be following on this hike. That said\, you will need to walk attentively at some points on the trail and/or wear hiking pants\, especially if you are highly allergic.\n\nThe initial section of our hike is partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral. Since we begin in relatively sheltered areas and reach exposed areas above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy.\n\nWe will continue to our turnaround point\, stop to enjoy the great late-day or early-evening views of the Pacific\, offshore islands\, and surrounding coastal peaks.

Please also watch for sometimes rapidly moving vehicles in this fairly rural and undeveloped area.\n\nCarpooling and public transportation are encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead.\n\nPlease do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead.\n\nDirections:\n\nBy car\, take the Las Positas Road exit off of Highway 101\, near downtown Santa Barbara\, and proceed north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) for just under two miles. Los Positas Road changes name to San Roque Road when it crosses State Street. Look for the trailhead on your left.\n\nAlternatively\, you can take city streets and/or Foothill Road (Route 192) to San Roque Road. If you do this\, the trailhead is 0.4 miles north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) from the intersection of Foothill Road and San Roque Road.\n\nBy public transportation\, take the MTD #6 or #11 bus to State Street and San Roque Road. Walk north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) on San Roque Road for 1.1 miles. You will cross Foothill Road at roughly the 0.7-mile mark. Look for the trailhead on your left. \nDISCLAIMER / RELEASE OF LIABILITY \nIMPORTANT\, PLEASE READ BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY: \nThe event host is a volunteer and is not responsible for the event group.

SUMMARY:National ParkRx Day: Rattlesnake Canyon To La Cumbre Peak
DESCRIPTION:More about National ParkRx Day: https://100.pryvit.dev/docs/National-ParkRx-Day-save-the-date.pdf \nThis is a two-section\, two-level\, out and back hike. The first section is an intermediate-level hike through Rattlesnake Canyon. This section covers about 4 miles roundtrip\, has roughly 500 feet of elevation gain\, and proceeds as far as the turn onto the Tunnel Trail Connector. \nThe second section of the trail is more advanced. It ascends from the Rattlesnake Canyon floor on the Tunnel Trail Connector at a fairly steep grade\, proceeds along the Tunnel Trail Connector and then onto the upper part of the Tunnel Trail\, continues up to the Tunnel Trail’s crest at East Camino Cielo\, and lastly climbs along East Camino Cielo to the lofty vistas of 4000-foot La Cumbre Peak\, high above Santa Barbara and the surrounding wilderness. This second section adds about 10 miles roundtrip and 3000 feet of elevation gain to the totals of the first section.\n\nOverall\, this is an adventure meetup for physically-fit people hiking at an intermediate level and above\, and who enjoy time outdoors with fun and friendly people sharing similar interests and fitness goals. Since our route is out and back\, and well-marked\, you can and should feel free to turn around and return to our starting point whenever you would like.\n\nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow the trail. If you hike with us all the way to La Cumbre Peak\, expect a roundtrip of about fourteen miles\, 3500 feet of gain/loss\, and a total hiking time of about seven hours. \nIf you are planning to do the full hike\, please be sure to bring at least 3 liters of water\, on-trail snacks\, a top-of the trail lunch\, a sun hat\, and extra layers of clothing. For the first section only\, about 1 liter of water\, some on-trail snacks\, a sun hat\, and one extra layer of clothing should suffice. \nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there! \nRATTLESNAKE CANYON TO LA CUMBRE PEAK HIKE\n \n\nHike Type: Adventure\n    \nLevel: Intermediate-Advanced\n    \nRoute Type: Out & back\n    \nDistance: Up to ~14 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: Up to ~3500 feet\n    \nTerrain: Mostly footpath\, some fire road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\n\nROUTE SUMMARY: \nThis hike will take us up to 14 miles roundtrip through and then above Rattlesnake Canyon in Santa Barbara\, on a progressively athletic and quite scenic route spanning the Rattlesnake Canyon Trail\, Tunnel Trail Connector\, Upper Tunnel Trail\, and East Camino Cielo roadway. In general\, we will walk in a north-westerly direction on our way in\, and a south-easterly one on our way out. \nThe route initially offers a great coastal canyon experience\, with riparian forest and meadow\, as we make our way through Rattlesnake Canyon to the turn onto the Tunnel Trail Connector. After the turn\, the trail becomes much steeper\, providing steadily increasing and then panoramic views of the Santa Ynez range\, Santa Barbara\, and the Pacific and offshore islands.\n\nThe full route is great training for more advanced area hikes\, including the Franklin Trail\, the crest and peak hikes above Ojai\, and the Wilson and Baldy ascents in the San Gabriel Mountains. \nOur route begins at the Rattlesnake Canyon trailhead\, which is located by the stone bridge on Las Canoas Road in Santa Barbara (directions below). We initially move northward through the canyon\, passing a mix of open meadows and more heavily forested areas. Most of this portion of the trail is a wide single track\, and is often quite picturesque as it winds through Rattlesnake Canyon. \nAt the upper end of the initial canyon section of the hike\, and at about the two-mile mark and after roughly 500 feet of elevation gain\, we reach eastern end of the Tunnel Trail Connector. We will stop there to rest for a short time\, before continuing onto the Tunnel Trail Connector and the second section of the hike.\n\nPlease note that this first section of the trail has some poison oak growing\, though it is generally avoidable if you take care to step around it. Given this\, you will need to walk attentively at some points on this part of the trail and/or wear hiking pants\, especially if you are highly allergic. It is also worth pointing out that we will pass a few side trails along this portion of the route – but none that we will take either during our ascent or descent. Overall\, this first part of the trail is scenic\, well-traveled\, and suited to people hiking at an intermediate-level. \nAfter our first rest stop and as we proceed onto the Tunnel Trail Connector\, the trail changes markedly in character. Our route becomes much steeper and more exposed to the sun and wind\, as we ascend above the riparian woodland of the canyon and make our way to the chaparral and steep hillsides of the remaining portions of our route. This second section and upper part of the trail is suitable for people hiking at or near an advanced level. \nAs we proceed along the second section of our route\, which extends roughly an additional five miles and 3000 feet of elevation gain\, reaches East Camino Cielo\, and then crests at La Cumbre Peak\, we will have a steady\, nearly uninterrupted ascent\, with much of the trail in full sun. This section of the trail is single track until we reach rolling East Camino Cielo road\, and includes a mix of moderate to steep switchbacks\, along with steadily ascending hillside and ridge trail. \nWhen we reach East Camino Cielo\, we will stop briefly to gather the group. We will them walk west along the road for about 1.4 miles until we reach La Cumbre Peak\, which is accessed at the end via a fairly sharp left turn that you will need to look for. At La Cumbre Peak\, we will stop for an extended time to rest\, enjoy the views\, and have a top-of-the-trail lunch. After our rest stop\, we will return to our starting point on Las Canoas Road by the same route as our ascent. \nAs summarized above\, the initial section of our hike is within the canyon and partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral. Since we begin in a relatively sheltered area and reach exposed areas above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy.\n\nESSENTIALS:\n\nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear. \nPlease bring – at least 3 liters of water\, trail snacks and a top-of-the-trail lunch\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail. \nPARKING: \nPlease park to the side of Las Canoas Road near the trailhead\, and please be considerate of the residents in this quiet neighborhood area. \nCarpooling is encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead. \nPlease do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead. \nDIRECTIONS: \nBy car\, take your favorite way to the corner of Mission Canyon Road and Foothill Drive (Highway 192)\, such as heading north from the Mission Street exit off the 101. Where Mission Canyon Road meets Foothill Drive\, coming from the city\, drive east for 1/4 mile on Foothill until you reach the Mission Canyon Road extension. \nOnce you reach the Mission Canyon Road extension on Foothill\, head north for about 1/2 mile (do not turn left onto Tunnel Road) and take the very sharp right onto Las Canoas. Drive east for about a mile on Las Canoas\, and then park at the trailhead. If you come to the Botanical Gardens\, you have missed the sharp right onto Las Canoas.\n\nFor people interested in using public transportation to reach the trailhead\, unfortunately the old Saturday shuttle to and from the Botanical Gardens is no longer running. While you can take the MDT #30 bus to the Santa Barbara Mission (or get near the Mission via the #3\, #6 or #11 buses) and walk the remaining two miles to the trailhead\, in general the roads near the trailhead are not pedestrian-friendly. I would therefore recommend that you arrange a ride or ride-share\, or carpool with another person attending the hike\, whether from the Mission or another location.

SUMMARY:Franklin Trail Crest Hike
DESCRIPTION:The first section is an intermediate-level hike from the Franklin Trail trailhead to the trail’s third (formerly second) lookout bench. This section covers about 6 miles roundtrip and has roughly 1500 feet of elevation gain\, out and back combined.\n\nThe second section of the route is at an advanced-intermediate level\, owing to its added distance and elevation gain. This section ascends from the trail’s third bench to the turnout to the crest ascent at mile 5.2 of the trail. This section adds an additional 4 miles and 1500 feet of gain\, roundtrip\, to the above totals.\n\nThe third section of the hike is still more advanced\, due to the added distance and elevation gain\, and because several points on this part of the trail require skill and experience. This final part of the route begins at the mile 5.2 turnout and ends at the trail crest at mile 7.9. It adds an additional 6 miles and 2000 feet of gain\, roundtrip\, to the above totals.\n\nSince our route is out and back\, and well-marked\, you can and should feel free to turn around and return to our starting point whenever you would like. \nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow the trail. If you hike with us all the way to the Franklin Trail Crest\, expect a roundtrip of about 16 miles and approximately 5000 feet of gain (roughly 4200 feet of gain on the way up and then an extra 800 feet on the way down\, owing to the undulating lower and middle sections of the trail).\n\nIf you are planning to do the full hike\, please be sure to bring at least 3 liters of water\, on-trail snacks\, a top-of the trail lunch\, a sun hat\, and extra layers of clothing. For the first section only\, about 1 liter of water\, some on-trail snacks\, a sun hat\, and one extra layer of clothing should suffice. If you are planning to do the first and second sections\, add an additional liter of water and more trail snacks. \nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there! \n \n\nHike Type: Adventure\n    \nLevel: Intermediate-Advanced\n    \nRoute Type: Out & Back\n    \nDistance: Up to ~16 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: Up to ~5000 feet\n    \nTerrain: Mix of footpath and fire road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\nRoute summary: \nThis hike will take us up to 16 miles roundtrip on the athletic and remarkably scenic Franklin Trail above Carpinteria. In general\, we will walk in a northerly direction on our way in\, and a southerly one on our way out. \nAfter a relatively flat start over the first mile\, as we make our way through the agricultural area immediately to the north of Carpinteria\, the route quickly turns onto and then up a fairly challenging hillside trail\, offering a window into the frequently undulating and periodically steep trail ahead. \nUnlike other routes in the southern Santa Ynez range\, the Franklin Trail has limited canyon and riparian sections\, crosses them perpendicularly in four spots via fairly steep descents and ascents\, and therefore is almost entirely hillside and ridgeline trail. Because of this\, the trail offers almost immediate\, steadily increasing\, and often startling panoramic views of the southern Santa Ynez range – from Santa Barbara to Rincon Peak and eventually opening up to include the Oxnard Plain and western Santa Monica range – and of course the Pacific and offshore islands to the south\, east\, and west. \nThe full route is great training for more advanced area hikes\, including the crest and peak hikes above Ojai\, and the Mount Baldy/Bear Canyon ascent in the San Gabriel Mountains. In many ways\, the route is comparable to\, though longer and wilder than\, the Mount Wilson Trail above Pasadena. \nOur route begins at the Franklin Trail trailhead\, which is located at the end of Meadow View Lane in Carpinteria (directions below). We initially move northward on flat trail\, past the Carpinteria High School and then several agricultural operations. Most of this portion of the trail is a wide double track\, and offers little indication of the athletic and often quite spectacular trail ahead. \nAt about the one mile mark\, and after only limited elevation gain\, we clear the agricultural areas and make our way onto a set of switchbacks that take us up roughly 500 feet\, over about a half-mile of wide single-track trail\, until we reach the second observation bench (aka Frank’s Bench). At this point\, the trail turns onto wide fire road\, which continues until it turns back onto single track trail at mile 5.2. We may stop by this bench briefly to enjoy one of what will be many great trail views\, especially if the group has spread out over the early part of the trail. \nFrom the second bench\, we will proceed along the fire road to the third bench at mile 3.2 of the trail and approximately 1300 feet above sea level. This point marks the end of the first section of our route and is where we will have our first full rest stop. This latter part of the first section of our route covers about 1.5 miles and\, owing to two (of four total) dips into riparian canyon areas\, about 800 feet of elevation gain. Overall\, the first section of the trail is scenic\, well-traveled\, and suited to people hiking at an intermediate level.\n\nAfter our rest stop at the third bench\, the second section of our hike begins. This section of the route is fairly short but periodically quite hilly. It will take us two miles on fire road to the turnout to the crest at mile 5.2 and approximately 1700 feet above sea level. Owing to our crossing two additional riparian canyon areas\, elevation gain is approximately 1000 feet on the way up (and 500 feet on the return). This point ends the second section of our hike\, and we will have a full stop to rest and gather group members that arrive in a roughly 15-minute timeframe. \n After our second rest stop\, we begin the third\, more advanced section of our hike. Here\, the trail changes markedly in character. Our route becomes an often fairly narrow and challenging single track footpath\, is primarily either hillside traverse or ridgeline passage\, and requires skill and experience to navigate some of its more difficult parts. Though this section of the trail is generally not steep\, there are a few spots that are exceptions. Overall\, the section ascends steadily and quite athletically for nearly three miles and 2000 feet of gain to the trail crest at mile 7.9 and approximately 3600 feet above sea level.\n\nFor people pursuing the third section of the hike\, expect a fairly demanding but extremely rewarding stretch of trail. The route itself and the views it offers are quite spectacular in parts\, and worthwhile for any hiker at or near an advanced level. In this section of the trail\, we will generally proceed on a self-paced basis and continue to the trail crest – which is reached by a series of switchbacks at the end\, and ones reminiscent of those in the early part of the route. \nAt the trail crest\, we will gather the group\, and have a top-of-the-trail lunch either at the trail crest\, at one of the nearby hills\, or at the nearby vernal pond. In any case\, we will stop for an extended time to rest and enjoy the stunning views. After our rest stop\, we will return to our starting point on Meadow View Lane by the same route as our ascent. Given the route’s distance and elevation change\, expect a total hiking time of 8-9 hours.\n\nAs summarized above\, the initial section of our hike is developed and partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral. Since we begin in a relatively sheltered area and reach exposed areas above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy. \nEssentials: \nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear.\n\nPlease bring – at least 3 liters of water\, trail snacks and a top-of-the-trail lunch\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail. \nParking: \nPlease park on Meadow View Lane\, and walk to the end of the road. Carpooling and public transportation are encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead. Please do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead. \nDirections: \nBy car\, take the 101 or Carpinteria Avenue to Linden Avenue (via the Casitas Pass Road exit if you are traveling north on the 101). Go north (away from the ocean) on Linden for about a third of a mile and then turn left onto Meadow View Lane. The trailhead is at the end of the road. \nAlternatively\, take Foothill Drive (Route 192) to Linden Avenue. Go south (toward the ocean) on Linden for about 300 feet and then turn right onto Meadow View Lane. The trailhead is at the end of the road. \nBy public transportation\, take the MTD #20 or #21X to Carpinteria and Elm\, VCTC Coastal Express to Carpinteria and Maple or Mark\, or Amtrak Pacific Surfliner to Carpinteria Station. Walk to Carpinteria and Linden\, and then north on the west/left side of Linden for a half mile to Meadow View Lane. Turn left on Meadow View Lane. The trailhead is at the end of the road.

SUMMARY:Santa Barbara Sunset Hike | Painted Cave
DESCRIPTION:The hike offers ample room to stretch your legs\, elevation gain for fitness improvement\, and remarkable mountain and ocean views up and down.\n\nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow Painted Cave Road. The full roundtrip route is about six miles\, with 1400 feet of gain/loss and a total hiking time of roughly 3 hours. Since our route is out and back\, and along a single well-marked road\, you can turn back earlier if you become winded or are short on time.\n\nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight.\n\nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there!\n\n \n\nHike Type: Conditioning\nLevel: Intermediate \nRoute Type: Out & back\n    \nDistance: ~6 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: ~1400 feet\n    \nTerrain: Paved road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\n\nRoute summary: \nThis hike will take us up to 6 miles roundtrip\, along the narrow and upwardly winding Painted Cave Road\, with its impressive and extended views of Santa Barbara\, Goleta\, and the Pacific. \nOur route begins at the parking area just off Highway 154 on San Marcos Road and\, after we carefully cross Highway 154\, proceeds along along Painted Cave Road for about three miles. The route passes some interesting sandstone formations and the Painted Cave area\, and finally reaches Camino Cielo Road at roughly 2700 feet. \nOverall\, the route is steadily ascending\, rather than steep\, though there are a few moderately challenging sections. As we ascend\, the route offers quite dramatic views of the Santa Ynez mountains\, Santa Barbara and Goleta\, and the Pacific and offshore islands to the south and west. \nThe initial section of our hike is somewhat sheltered\, but the route quickly takes us to open hillsides\, before returning to more shaded areas near the top. Since we pass through both relatively protected areas and more exposed ones above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy.\n\nWe will continue to our turnaround point\, stop briefly to rest\, and then enjoy the great late-day or early-evening views as we return to our starting point by the same route. \nEssentials: \nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear. \nPlease bring – at least 1 liter of water\, on-trail snacks\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp or flashlight\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail.\n\nParking: \nPlease parallel park in the dirt parking area alongside the south side of San Marcos Road\, approximately 100 yards in from Highway 154. Carpooling is encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use. Please do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any parking area.\n\nDirections:\n\nComing from the Santa Barbara area\, take either the 101\, Cathedral Oaks Road\, or Foothill Drive (Highway 192) to Highway 154 and then drive north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) to San Marcos Road. San Marcos Road is 5.5 miles on Highway 154 from the 101 and 4.8 miles from Cathedral Oaks and Foothill. When you reach San Marcos Road\, turn left and look for the dirt parking area on the left.\n\nAlternatively\, from Goleta\, you can take San Marcos Road from Cathedral Oaks Road and drive 3.6 miles north to the dirt parking area\, which will be on the right\, just before reaching Highway 154.\n\nFrom the Santa Ynez Valley\, take Highway 154 to San Marcos Road. When you reach San Marcos Road\, turn right and look for the dirt parking area on the left.\n\nOwing to its rural nature\, there is no public transportation to this meetup location.

SUMMARY:Montecito Sunset Hike | San Ysidro
DESCRIPTION:Our primary route is a moderate-length out and back hike\, but it is possible to do shorter variations and rejoin the group at our scenic turnaround point. \nThe main hike covers just under 5 miles roundtrip and has roughly 1350 feet of elevation gain. Three variations include a short hike of about 3 miles and 650 feet of gain\, and two middle-distance hikes of roughly 4 miles and 1000 feet of gain.\n\nOn all these routes\, the terrain is either dirt fire road or well-tended single-track trail.\n\nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight. \n\nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there!\n \n\n Montecito Sunset Hike\n    \nHike Type: Conditioning\n    \nLevel: Intermediate\n    \nRoute Type: Out & back or lollipop\n    \nDistance: 3-5 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: 650-1350 feet\n    \nTerrain: Footpath and dirt road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n    \n\nRoute summary:  \nThis hike will take us 3-5 miles roundtrip\, through and then above San Ysidro Canyon\, to the McMenemy Overlook and its impressive views of Montecito and the Pacific. \nOur route begins at the San Ysidro trailhead on Mountain Drive\, proceeds north along the San Ysidro Trail\, passes several homes\, and follows a mix of single track trail and dirt road for about a half mile. \nAt the half-mile mark\, there are four route options:\n\n> Short route – turn west onto the McMenemy Trail\, proceed to the McMenemy Overlook\, and then return back to our starting point by the same route. This out and back route is just under 3 miles roundtrip and provides approximately 650 feet of elevation gain and loss. \n> Long route – continue on the San Ysidro Trail\, turn west onto the Edison Catwalk at about the one-mile mark\, ascend to the Girard Trail\, descend on the Girard Trail to the McMenemy Overlook\, and then return back to our starting point by the same route. This out and back route is just under 5 miles roundtrip and offers approximately 1350 feet of elevation gain and loss. \n> Medium routes – there are two middle-distance route options. One is to follow the McMenemy Trail to the McMenemy Overlook per the short route\, and then return to our starting point via the long route. The other is to follow the San Ysidro\, Edison Catwalk\, and Girard Trails to the McMenemy Overlook per the long route\, and then return to our starting point via the short route. Both of these lollipop or figure-9 routes are just under 4 miles roundtrip and provide approximately 1000 feet of elevation gain and loss. \nPlease note that San Ysidro Canyon has some poison oak growing\, though it is easily avoided in the sections of the trail we will be following on this hike. That said\, you will need to walk attentively at some points on the trail and/or wear hiking pants\, especially if you are highly allergic. \n\nThe initial section of our hike is partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral. Since we begin in a relatively sheltered area and reach exposed areas above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy.\n\nIn all cases\, when we reach the McMenemy Overlook\, we will stop to enjoy the great late-day or early-evening views of the Pacific\, offshore islands\, and surrounding coastal peaks. After our stop\, we will return to our starting point as described above. \nEssentials: \n\nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear. \nPlease bring – at least 1 liter of water\, on-trail snacks\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp or flashlight\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail.\n\nParking: \nPlease park to the side of Mountain Drive in the established parking areas near the trailhead\, and please be considerate of the residents in this quiet neighborhood area. \nCarpooling and public transportation are encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead. \nPlease do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead. \nDirections: \nBy car\, take the San Ysidro exit off of Highway 101. Turn north on San Ysidro Road and continue on it for about a mile to East Valley Road. Turn right on East Valley and follow it another mile to Park Lane. Look for the eucalyptus-shrouded entrance to this narrow road\, just after crossing San Ysidro Creek. Turn left onto Park Lane\, and then left again after a half mile onto Mountain Drive. Follow Mountain Drive for a few hundred yards to near where the road ends. Park nearby and look for the trailhead on the right/north side of the road.

SUMMARY:Santa Barbara Sunset Hike | Jesutita Trail
DESCRIPTION:The hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow the trail. The full roundtrip route is about seven miles\, with 1500 feet of gain/loss and a total hiking time of roughly 3 hours. Since our route is out and back\, and well-marked\, you can turn back earlier if you become winded or are short on time.\n\nOn this route\, the terrain is either dirt fire road or fairly well-tended single and double-track trail. \nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight.\n\nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there! \n\nHike Type: Conditioning\n    \nLevel: Intermediate\nRoute Type: Out & back\nDistance: ~7 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: ~1500 feet\n    \nTerrain: Footpath and dirt road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\nRoute summary:\n \nThis hike will take us up to 7 miles roundtrip\, through and then above San Roque Canyon\, to Inspiration Point and its impressive views of Santa Barbara\, Goleta\, and the Pacific.\n\nOur route begins at the San Jesusita trailhead on San Roque Road\, proceeds along the mostly single-track Jesusita Trail for about three miles\, then follows a dirt utility road for just under a half mile\, and finally reaches Inspiration Point via a roughly 200-foot single-track trail.\n\nThe route is well-marked\, except for the first two forks and the final turnout to the point\, where we go right on the way out (left on the way back) in all three cases. \nOverall\, the route is steadily ascending\, rather than steep\, though there are a few moderately challenging sections and a few seasonal water crossings. The first couple of miles follow San Roque Canyon and offer a great riparian experience. The third mile is primarily switchbacks\, as we proceed up out of the canyon until reaching the dirt utility road near Inspiration Point. \nAs we ascend\, the route offers increasing views of the Santa Ynez mountains\, Santa Barbara and Goleta\, and the Pacific and offshore islands to the south and west.\n\nPlease note that San Roque Canyon has some poison oak growing\, though it is easily avoided in the sections of the trail we will be following on this hike. That said\, you will need to walk attentively at some points on the trail and/or wear hiking pants\, especially if you are highly allergic. \nThe initial section of our hike is partly shaded\, but the route steadily gives way to open hillside and chaparral.

Please also watch for sometimes rapidly moving vehicles in this fairly rural and undeveloped area. \nCarpooling and public transportation are encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use at the trailhead. \nPlease do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any trailhead.\n\nDirections: \nBy car\, take the Las Positas Road exit off of Highway 101\, near downtown Santa Barbara\, and proceed north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) for just under two miles. Los Positas Road changes name to San Roque Road when it crosses State Street. Look for the trailhead on your left.\n\nAlternatively\, you can take city streets and/or Foothill Road (Route 192) to San Roque Road. If you do this\, the trailhead is 0.4 miles north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) from the intersection of Foothill Road and San Roque Road.\n\nBy public transportation\, take the MTD #6 or #11 bus to State Street and San Roque Road. Walk north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) on San Roque Road for 1.1 miles. You will cross Foothill Road at roughly the 0.7-mile mark. Look for the trailhead on your left.\n\nDISCLAIMER / RELEASE OF LIABILITY \nIMPORTANT\, PLEASE READ BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY: \nThe event host is a volunteer and is not responsible for the event group.

SUMMARY:Santa Barbara Sunset Hike | Painted Cave
DESCRIPTION:This is an intermediate-level\, conditioning-oriented hike\, out and back on Painted Cave Road\, which goes as far as Camino Cielo Road. The hike offers ample room to stretch your legs\, elevation gain for fitness improvement\, and remarkable mountain and ocean views up and down.\n\nThe hike’s distance and elevation change will depend on how far you follow Painted Cave Road. The full roundtrip route is about six miles\, with 1400 feet of gain/loss and a total hiking time of roughly 3 hours. Since our route is out and back\, and along a single well-marked road\, you can turn back earlier if you become winded or are short on time.\n\nPlease be sure to bring water\, a snack\, an extra layer of clothing\, and a headlamp or flashlight.\n\nDetails of the hike are provided below…hope to see you there!\n\nSanta Barbara Sunset Hike\n \n\nHike Type: Conditioning\n    \nLevel: Intermediate\n    \nRoute Type: Out & back\n    \nDistance: ~6 miles\n    \nElevation gain/loss: ~1400 feet\n    \nTerrain: Paved road\n    \nLeashed dogs: Yes\n\nRoute summary: \nThis hike will take us up to 6 miles roundtrip\, along the narrow and upwardly winding Painted Cave Road\, with its impressive and extended views of Santa Barbara\, Goleta\, and the Pacific. \nOur route begins at the parking area just off Highway 154 on San Marcos Road and\, after we carefully cross Highway 154\, proceeds along along Painted Cave Road for about three miles. The route passes some interesting sandstone formations and the Painted Cave area\, and finally reaches Camino Cielo Road at roughly 2700 feet. \nOverall\, the route is steadily ascending\, rather than steep\, though there are a few moderately challenging sections. As we ascend\, the route offers quite dramatic views of the Santa Ynez mountains\, Santa Barbara and Goleta\, and the Pacific and offshore islands to the south and west. \nThe initial section of our hike is somewhat sheltered\, but the route quickly takes us to open hillsides\, before returning to more shaded areas near the top. Since we pass through both relatively protected areas and more exposed ones above the Pacific\, weather conditions can range from cool to hot and calm to windy. \nWe will continue to our turnaround point\, stop briefly to rest\, and then enjoy the great late-day or early-evening views as we return to our starting point by the same route. \nEssentials: \nPlease wear – hiking or athletic pants or shorts\, one or more wicking shirts appropriate to the temperature\, comfortable hiking or running shoes\, a hat and other needed sun protection\, your favorite undergarments and accessories\, and a light pack to hold your gear. \nPlease bring – at least 1 liter of water\, on-trail snacks\, extra layers of clothing in case you become cold\, a charged cell phone\, identification\, a headlamp or flashlight\, a waterproof shell if rain is forecast\, and any medications or anything else you might need on the trail.\n\nParking:\n\nPlease parallel park in the dirt parking area alongside the south side of San Marcos Road\, approximately 100 yards in from Highway 154. Carpooling is encouraged\, both to lower our carbon footprint and to reduce the number of parking spaces we use. Please do not leave anything of value in your vehicle\, at this or any parking area. \nDirections: \nComing from the Santa Barbara area\, take either the 101\, Cathedral Oaks Road\, or Foothill Drive (Highway 192) to Highway 154 and then drive north (toward the mountains or away from the ocean) to San Marcos Road. San Marcos Road is 5.5 miles on Highway 154 from the 101 and 4.8 miles from Cathedral Oaks and Foothill. When you reach San Marcos Road\, turn left and look for the dirt parking area on the left. \nAlternatively\, from Goleta\, you can take San Marcos Road from Cathedral Oaks Road and drive 3.6 miles north to the dirt parking area\, which will be on the right\, just before reaching Highway 154. \nFrom the Santa Ynez Valley\, take Highway 154 to San Marcos Road. When you reach San Marcos Road\, turn right and look for the dirt parking area on the left. \nOwing to its rural nature\, there is no public transportation to this meetup location.
