Description

This is a pleasant relatively easy hike through rolling grasslands and oak groves. The first section of trail had an amazing number of birds including scrub jays, sparrows, mocking birds, and others I could not identify. I found it amusing that many of the oak trees had very small numbers on them, as if they were addresses for the squirrels living in the trees. The last mile or so of the hike is less pretty, but has some interesting rock formations.
