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