SB/VC - Sunset Hike @ Ventura Hills Nature Preserve

As the golden hour descends upon the coast, it’s time to lace up those boots and experience the Ventura Hills Nature Preserve like never before. With the park now officially open as of January 2026, we have a front-row seat to the rolling vistas and crisp spring air that make our backyard so spectacular. There is nothing quite like watching the sky transform into a canvas of amber and violet from the highest ridgelines, and we want you there to share the view.

Join the crew on Thursday, March 26, for a moderate trek timed perfectly to catch the sun dipping below the Pacific. It’s the perfect mid-week reset—fresh air, great company, and the kind of panoramic views that remind us why we love this area. Whether you’re a seasoned trailblazer or just looking for a scenic stroll to end your day, grab your gear and let’s make some memories under the fading light.

Parking is in the parking lot off Hall Road (address below). We must be out of the lot by sundown so our vehicles don’t get locked inside. We will meet at the trailhead. We will start promptly at 5:15pm so don’t be late, or else catch up with us on the trail if you want.

Point Dume to Paradise Cove Café

When: March 28, 2026, 11:00 AM

Join us for an exciting coastal hike. We begin at Westward Beach, over Point Dume, down approximately 200 stairs to the sand, and proceed to Paradise Cove Beach Café for lunch. Our hike is along the base of sea cliffs and is only possible during very low tides. This is an exciting Malibu experience, combining breathtaking coastal scenery with a beachside cafe frequented by celebrities. We will have plenty of stops to look for whales, dolphins, and sea lions. When looking at the tide pools please do not touch any of the animals, actually it is against the law, and be extra careful where you step.

The return may have to be on top of the bluff, through the ritzy, star-studded neighborhoods but preferably along the sand and back up the stairs.

When: March 28, 2026, 11:00 AM

Directions: Westward Beach Parking Lot, Pacific Coast Highway to the end of Westward Beach Road

Meeting point: Drive to the end of Westward Beach Rd. and park, $8.00. We will meet at the end of the parking lot just beyond the restrooms.

Hiking Distance: ~5 miles total

Difficulty: Moderate, lengthy stairs, beach walking on sand and rocks and a short hike up and over Point Dume.

Bring: Water, Snacks, Beach friendly shoes with grip for stairs, hat/sunscreen, towel or beach gear if you’re hanging after the hike, binoculars

Brunch: Paradise Cove Café Credit cards accepted.

Wrap-up: 2-3PM

Optional: Hang out on the beach afterward! ️

Low tide timing looks perfect! We should have a smooth walk in the coves and around the points—just be prepared for a little bit of sea spray and beachy fun.

Can’t wait to have this adventure with you all!

Registration is free but required. Participants must have registered to sign the mandatory liability release for which is part of the online registration process.

Point Dume to the beach below these cliffs.

These stairs were completed in mid 2022 for a cost of 3.3 million. Don’t be intimidated, we will take it slow.

Looking back to Westward Beach from Point Dume. A west facing beach is unusual in Malibu as most face south. Zuma is next beach faintly seen in the distance.

Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner loved Paradise Cove and spent their honeymoon on their yacht in the cove. Perhaps we will see a current member of the glitterati.

A very low tide is required to do this hike. There are few opportunities of such a very low tide happening each year.

In the spring this prehistoric looking plant, the coreopsis, comes alive and is covered with beautiful yellow flowers. It only grows near Point Dume and a couple of points on the Channel Islands. Let’s protect it and other species by staying on the trails.

Moderate Day Hike to Workman Hill via Worsham Canyon Trail in the Puente Hills Preserve

This is a MODERATELY STRENUOUS hike

Approx. 4.3 miles / 925' elevation gain

Saturday April 4, 2026

9:00 AM to 11:30 AM

Please join me for another day hike in the Puente Hills Preserve. The trailhead is located off the 605 freeway in beautiful Whittier and is an easy 30-minute drive from Long Beach.

NOTE: All photos are from the same hike in 2025

This loop hike is considered moderately strenuous at only 4.3 miles in length but it does have two steep sections, one at the beginning and the other about 1/3 of the way. After that its pretty level and then downhill on the return. There is very little shade on the trail so please wear a hat and sunscreen.

Our destination is Workman Hill (1391') which is named after William Workman (1839-1918). Workman was a two-term mayor of Los Angeles, banker and businessman.

From Workman Hill we will have a 360 degree view obstructed only by the relatively new 500kv power lines from the Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project (TRTP). These electric transmission lines are capable of carrying 4,500 megawatts of electricity (enough energy to supply three million homes) from renewable and other generators in Kern County south to San Bernardino County.

The varied terrain and elevation provide opportunities for a unique trail experience and for scenic views of the surrounding landscape. As a result, this area is extremely popular, particularly with cyclists. This area also features many different plant communities and uncommon species, such as Catalina mariposa lily, Plummer’s mariposa lily, and gray fox.

Where Do We Begin?
13895 Philadelphia St, Whittier, CA 90601

There is plenty of street parking as its a residential neighborhood.

Link to Trailhead in Google Maps

NOTE: There are no restrooms anywhere on the hike or at the trailhead.

What to Bring

You should bring snacks, water (2 to 3 liters), sunscreen and hat. Sturdy shoes/boots are recommended as well as hiking poles if you use them.

Bring comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, sunglasses and a liter of water.

(This writeup was adapted from LAIST written by Paul Haddad)

Where are we headed?

Old and older Inglewood: Market Street, whose pedestrian-friendly central business district hearkens back to the 1920s, and Edward Vincent Jr. Park, where Centinela Springs provided fresh water from prehistoric times through the 1940s.

Why now?

Inglewood, if you haven’t noticed, is having a moment. During the L.A. Lakers’ Forum days, it was the “City of Champions.” Now it’s home to the Rams’ SoFi Stadium and the Clippers’ brand-new Intuit Dome. But Inglewood is far more than its multi-billion-dollar sports shrines. This route retraces the city’s roots and leans into its African American footprint.

Quickly, what can I expect?

Route conditions: Flat with slight grades

Difficulty: 2 on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the hardest

Distance: 2.8 miles

Dog friendly: Yes

Costs/Parking: Free parking In the southwest lot at approximately 700 Warren Lane, or on Warren Lane itself, which skirts the northern boundary of Edward Vincent Jr. Park. (The Metro K Line stops just south of here.)

Meet up point: At the entrance to Edward Vincent, Jr. Park which is at the intersection of Warren Lane, Stepney Street and N. Park Avenue. Click Here for map.

OK, Let's Get Started

Inglewood has undergone major demographic shifts throughout its history beyond the well-trodden succession of Indian, Spanish and Mexican communities. Beginning in the 1970s, the city increasingly drew Black professionals and working-class families. This route covers all eras, with an emphasis on Downtown, which has vacillated between vibrant and struggling conditions over the decades.

Like many SoCal communities, water is at the heart of why Inglewood is where it is. What better place to start this hike than at the place that nourished its rise? Twenty feet beyond the eastern driveway of the parking lot for Edward Vincent Jr. Park, look for a gated walkway that advertises the “Willie Agee Playhouse,” a beloved 55-seat community theater. Follow the path to the playhouse. Just before its entryway, turn right at the palm tree. Cross the grass to two stone markers nearby.

One of the monuments contains a capped valve that used to control the bubbling waters of Centinela Springs (or as the Spanish called it, Aguaje de Centinela). An inscription reads, “From Time Immemorial God’s Blessing of Sweet Water to All His Creatures.” Next to it, a plaque details the history of the former artesian well, one of the first Registered Historical Landmarks in California. Amazingly, the spring quenched the thirst of Inglewood residents as late as 1949 before it ran dry.

What is a 'Pump Track'?

The concrete foundation that supports the old well includes a short, paved connection to another pedway. Turn right on this path, away from a magnificent outdoor amphitheater. Honestly, this whole park is the bomb, bustling with families and well-maintained recreational facilities, including the first pump track in Greater L.A. What’s a pump track, you ask? Imagine a self-contained bicycle and skating course with lots of whoop-de-doos (mountain biker lingo for fun trail humps). Take in the organized chaos from the park’s southern walkway or relax on one of several mosaic-tiled benches melded into an old stone wall.

Exiting Stoneview we make a right, continuing on our walk. We'll soon come up on Lavender Chiveeví, a Los Angeles County commissioned mural that honors the biodiversity of the plants found in the area, the surrounding community and roads, and the indigenous people who once called the area home. Active oil pumpjacks can be seen in the distance, part of the Inglewood Oil Field. The trail will dip once more before it begins a climb of 200 feet over the next half mile. Along the way, take an opportunity to pause and turn. At several points, we can enjoy the blissful feeling of seeing nature all around, and barely any signs of "civilization" beyond a glimpse of some power lines and the whirring of traffic in the distance.

Rise. Fall. Repeat.

Exit the park at its southwest corner, crossing to the other side of E. Florence Avenue. After three blocks, turn left onto North Market Street, the northern portal of downtown. Interestingly, Inglewood was rejuvenated after a damaging 1920 earthquake. Investors swooped in, making it the fastest-growing city in America from 1920 to 1925! As you stroll down Market, note the ornamental center median, which used to support the Los Angeles Railway.

Despite having good bones, many historically significant buildings have struggled to secure tenants. At 115 N. Market, a former Fox Theatre has been slowly decaying for decades. Across the street, at 100 N. Market, a longtime bookstore never recovered after the pandemic. Its Mediterranean Revival building, erected in 1927 as the Bank of Inglewood, also awaits new life.

Exploring the DT hub

Another block, however, reveals a brighter side of Downtown. Black pride public art abounds, and 139 S. Market hosts the popular Inglewood Marketplace (once a JC Penney). On the northeast corner of Market and Manchester Boulevard, the World Hat & Boot Mart occupies a Streamline Moderne building from 1927 that underwent a funky makeover in the 1960s, creating the architectural Frankenstein you see today. This intersection of Market and Manchester represents Inglewood’s cultural nexus, as street events ranging from Jazz Fest to Juneteenth celebrations often spoke off from here.

One place that remains fixed: Dulan’s Soul Food Kitchen at 202 E. Manchester — one block west of Market — an institution since 1975 and well worth visiting for their cornbread and candied yams alone.

What’s old is new

As you continue south on Market, the middle of the next block (233 S. Market) features an ornate brick building once owned by S.H. Kress, a defunct department store chain. Now a clothing outlet, the “Kress” insignia is still visible near the roofline.

On the east side of the street, the former Ritz cinema fared better than the Fox. In an era of theatrical X-rated movies, it became a Pussycat Theatre in the 1970s, morphing, at long last, to the Miracle Theatre, a live-events venue that kept the marquee.

This is the turnaround point

Time to return from whence you came. Go right on East Nutwood Street and right again on North La Brea Avenue, whose original name in these parts — Commercial Street — telegraphed its importance to the town’s nascent business district. Today, the street’s junction with Queen Street affords the best view of the nine-story Inglewood City Hall, erected in 1973. Its architect was Charles Luckman, he of the Los Angeles Convention Center, Madison Square Garden, and Inglewood’s own Forum. More importantly, Luckman’s pedigree was a symbol that Inglewood had truly arrived.

With plans afoot to further revitalize Downtown, ever-evolving Inglewood will no doubt look different upon subsequent visits. For now, after leaving City Hall, turn right on Florence Avenue to retrace your steps to where it all began.

PS - Hike: Lost Horse Loop Trail - Joshua Tree National Park

When
Mon, April 13, 2026

8:00 AM - 3:30 PM

Location
Joshua Tree National Park

Register

Description:  Lost Horse Loop Trail is a 6.8 mile trail located in Joshua Tree National Park just off the Keys View Road. The trail follows the remains of the old service road for the mine which is located about 1.5 miles from the trailhead at elevation 4600-5120 feet. The mine, over 100 years old, is one of the best preserved and was one of the most productive mines in Joshua Tree having produced 10,000 ounces of gold and 16,000 ounces of silver between the years of 1894 and 1931.

Lost Horse Mine was discovered by Johnny Lang while either looking for one of his lost horses or a stolen horse whose tracks took him to the Lost Horse Valley and the camp of Jim McHaney with his gang of cattle rustlers and horse thieves. After being told he did not lose a horse, Johnny Lang left and on his way back ran into “Dutch” Frank Diebold. After being shown a piece of ore, Johnny bought the rights to the mine for $1,000 from “Dutch.” After a number of partners, Johnny was eventually forced to sell his share of the mine after his main partner, J.D. Ryan, hired a detective who caught him stealing. Johnny didn’t go too far and settled in the next canyon near the mine now named Johnny Long Canyon. In 1925, Johnny left a note on his cabin door saying he had left for food and bedded down for the night at the entrance to the canyon not too far from the mine. He died that night and was not found until two months later by Bill Keys, owner of the Keys View Ranch. After reporting his death to the county coroner, Mr. Keys buried Johnny where he was found near the Keys View Road just at the turn to the Lost Horse Mine parking area.

Hawaii is full of attractions that are unlike anything else in the world, but even among these unique wonders, Hawaii’s volcanoes stand out as truly remarkable.

Come join me for day hikes at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and on the Big Island of Hawaii to experience stunning landscapes created by these volcanoes.

Registration: Limited to Great Outdoors members

Day Hike: Tue. Apr. 28^th, 2026 at 9 am- Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

Day Hike: Thu. Apr. 30th, 2026 at 9 am- Big Island Hawaii, local trail. Location TBA.

Fees: Day hikes are FREE. There is a vehicle entrance fee of $30 to enter Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. A valid national park pass waives the entrance fee. There may be parking and entrance fees charged at the trailhead of a local hiking trail on the Big Island.

What to Bring: Day Pack with Ten Essentials. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and rain protection. Pack a lunch, snacks, and water.

Important information

Great Outdoors is not arranging air, ground transportation, or lodging for members on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Register- Please RSVP for a day hike so I know who is coming.

I will email attendees with essential details such as trailhead location, parking, and hike mileage and elevation gain for each day hike up to two weeks before the event.

I am visiting the Big Island of Hawaii the week of 4/26 to 5/03/26 and inviting other Great Outdoors members to join me on day hikes on Tuesday 4/28 and Thursday 4/30/26.

I am staying in Kailua-Kona, so if you are also visiting the Big Island of Hawaii during the last week of April 2026, reach out and let’s meet up.

Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

Climate- In late April, the climate on the Big Island of Hawaii is generally pleasant, with daytime temperatures averaging in the high 70’s to low 80’s F and evening temperatures dropping into the 60’s F. This month marks the end of the rainy season, so you can expect fewer rain showers, although it’s still possible to experience some rain, especially at night.

Questions?

A Forgotten Oasis Overlooking the Coachella Valley

Lost Creek Canyon Ranch

Experience this remote canyon, 400 acre sanctuary with ecological and historical wonders that has long been closed to the public-----until now.

A "step back in time" to a 150-year-old homestead. Set into the foothills of the Coachella Valley, this is not your grandaddy's ranch. This ground has played host to Native Americans for more than a thousand years before the arrival of European settlers in the mid-19th century.

The first permanent dwelling in the valley was built here in 1876 by the Stubbes. They operated a stagecoach stop and provided "bordello comforts" for weary travelers headed toward the coast.

If these hills could talk, they would speak of subsequent owners that include a hermit named Herman, a world-famous business executive turned architect, and a pioneering cancer researcher.

The current owners have spent five years bringing this unique property back to life, preserving a spectacular range of flora, fauna, and vistas found nowhere else and home to a variety of animal rescues.

Itinerary Details

Guided Exploration: A 5-hour immersive tour of the historic structures, hidden streams, and lush orchards.

Physicality: Expect light hiking with some terrain changes. Off-road vehicle transport will be utilized to tour the property.

Breakfast: Catered by Cornerstone Barbecue.

Exclusivity: This is a rare opportunity to step onto ground that was previously off-limits to the general public.

Cost: $215.50 per person (all‑inclusive).

Payment Process

After you submit your registration information with Great Outdoors here, you will receive a confirmation email. Open the email and click the payment link provided. This link will take you directly to the Lost Creek Ranch website to complete your payment.

Select April 30 at 7:00 AM as your reservation time.

Yosemite National Park

Curry Village Canvas Tents

May 15-18, 2026

Need we say more?

Yes we will!

Spring in Yosemite can't be beat!

We will be heading to Yosemite at the BEST time to visit this illustrious National Park! The weather will be amazing with the waterfalls at their most dynamic! Our lodging for the 3-night outing will be in Camp Curry, in unheated canvas tents.

These events get sold out to capacity each year!

Do NOT hesitate to book as soon as possible as we expect this event to be SOLD OUT again!

Yosemite is one of the most popular National Parks in the country and we in southern California are very fortunate to have it so close. If you have never seen it then this Great Outdoors trip is a good opportunity for you to be introduced to this special place.

If you have been there one or more times, then you’ll understand why many have made a Yosemite visit an annual event. The grandeur and majesty of the park are so enriching that Yosemite can be experienced and enjoyed again and again. The natural beauty of the park has inspired many for the last 150 years, but perhaps none more effusive than John Muir, who said of Yosemite, “It is by far the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter.” Please join us in this temple of the great outdoors.

Pictured above: Richard, Mike and Claudia half way up to the top of upper Yosemite Falls, this photo is at the top of lower Yosemite Falls.
The location of this trip will be Yosemite Valley. Our accommodations are canvas tents in Camp Curry, a rustic but charming village near the east end of the valley.
Arrival should be about 4:00 pm on Friday afternoon.

For both Saturday and Sunday, there will be optional hikes each day to choose from - one will be strenuous, the other will be easy. Or simply visit the galleries, stores, bike ride, museums and/or stroll in the valley floor!

Pictured above: We are hitting the Panorama Trail that will put us back to Yosemite Valley - 8 Miles. Yippee!
On Monday morning we must check out of the cabins by 11:00 am.

More details will be announced as we finalize registration.

Canvas Tents:

We have secured four canvas tents for our group.

Each tent has 3 single beds and a double. We can max out at 5 people per tent. We are hoping to get a couple or friends (with benefits or without benefits) to share the double bed. This way we can max out each tent with 5 people so that we can get as many as possible to experience Yosemite for this excursion.

If you want to be in the same tent with another member please note that on the registration.

If you prefer sharing a double cot with someone please note that on the registration and who the person is so we match you with the correct person.

If you have a LOUD snoring issue, you should consider not attending so that others will not be affected by the noise. This is close sleeping quarters.

Driving & Directions:

While GO is not authorized to be directly involved in coordinating carpools, we highly recommend our members to consider carpooling!

What else?

Cooking facilities/campfire rings are not available in Curry Village. However, there are several dining options near our cabins.

Such as Pizza & Beer, Cafeteria (with Vegan options!) and of course burgers & fries too. A general store is also open for purchasing food items and other material goods. You may bring snack food and drinks, but all food and scented items must be stored in the bear-proof storage locker in front of the cabin. This includes all food, food related items, toiletries, sundries and ice chests. Bears have a strong sense of smell and are attracted to anything they think will lead them to human food. Remember not to store these items in your vehicle or canvas tent . It is recommended to use sealed plastic containers for storing your food inside the bear boxes. This makes it easier to keep your food organized, and away from campground critters.
And of course, there is the option of having some fine dining at the Awahnee!

Showers, sinks and flush toilets are all available to participants.

Be sure to remember a flashlight or headlamp to find your way around Camp Curry at night. In addition, a sleeping bag (recommended), an extra blanket or a honey bunny may help keep you warm at night. Other things to bring:

•Warm outer gear appropriate for snow and/or rain or Shorts and T-shirts for warm days

•Layered under gear (long underwear, etc.)

•Hat, gloves, scarf, etc.

•Sunglasses, sun block (for your face), lip balm

•Sturdy hiking shoes

Weather: Average temperatures in May in the Yosemite Valley range from the low 50s (night time) to the low-mid 70s during the day. Conditions may vary between sun, clouds, rain, or snow. Be prepared for anything. Expect the unexpected!

The trip leader will inform you of the weather conditions a couple days before our arrival but you may also want to keep abreast of them by using the Yosemite National Park website. (Click here.)

Price:

$225 for Great Outdoors members for the 4 days/3 nights event. Come early on Friday to enjoy the park and/or stay late on Monday to enjoy the park! We will check into our canvas tents at 4 PM on Friday.

This is a members only event, thus an annual membership ($25) must be purchased prior to signing up for this event.

If you have a LOUD snoring issue, you should consider not attending so that others will not be affected by the noise. This is close sleeping quarters.

Cancellations will be authorized up to 21 days prior to start day of event IF a replacement can be found; a $20 cancellation fee will be charged.

Trip Leader: Lance Whitmier

Lance states: Yosemite mesmerized me the very first time I visited the Park in the 90's. I always brag about the majestic beauty of Yosemite along with it's grandeur and power. I claim that Yosemite is indeed "my Heaven on Earth" and I can't wait to share the experience with you!" For those visiting Yosemite for the first time - be prepared to experience a bit of heaven and the surreal!

John Muir Wilderness 9 Lakes Backpack

in the Sabrina Basin (Intermediate)

July 5-7 Campout, July 7-11 Backpack

Total Distance: 17miles (7mi with backpack)  Elevation Gain: 3,400ft (1,500 with backpack) Route Type: Out and Back

We have room for up to 10 backpackers, plus 10 car campers (or 5 RVs)

If you’ve longed for space and time to soak in the unfathomable beauty of a place and love to wander and explore and bask in the majesty of wilderness without having to pack up and move camp and hike every day, this trip is for you! Every part of this trip is spectacular! It is rated as intermediate based on length of the backpack (4 nights/5 days), distance traveled from vehicles, terrain, elevation, elevation gain and loss and expected weather.

Blue Lake: In Inyo National Forest (Sabrina Basin) is a stunning, crystal-clear alpine lake at roughly 10,400 feet elevation. Known for its brilliant blue-green water, it is surrounded by jagged 13,000-foot granite peaks, meadows, and wildflowers, offering a quintessential Sierra Nevada wilderness experience. Situated in the John Muir Wilderness above Lake Sabrina, the area features waterfalls, dramatic granite cliffs, and high alpine meadows. The trail to Blue Lake is well-traveled, often serving as a starting point for exploring deeper into the Sabrina Basin, including Dingleberry, Hungry Packer, and Midnight Lakes, and we will explore all of those lakes – and more – on this trip.

Night sky: This trip will offer exceptional, dark-sky viewing conditions with a waning crescent moon that rises late, allowing for prime stargazing. Early July is peak season for viewing the galactic core of the Milky Way, with the best viewing being between 00:00 and 5:00. The Alpha Capricornids meteor shower will be active. It is known for producing slow-moving, bright fireballs. Venus will rise more than 2 hours before sunrise, while Mars and Uranus will be close together in the sky on July 4.

Schedule

Sunday, July 5 - Arrive, check in, set up, welcome tea, campfire. We will enjoy the first two nights at beautiful and spacious Four Jeffrey Campground in the Inyo National Forest, which extends along the South Fork of Bishop Creek at 8,300 ft. elevation. Two sides are shaded by aspens, cottonwoods, and Jeffrey and lodgepole pines. Each campsite accommodates 2 vehicles and up to 6 campers, with a bear locker and picnic table. Restrooms have flush toilets and sinks. Firewood is available from the camp hosts.

Monday, July 6 - Two options for activities:

Boating on Sabrina Lake, picnic lunch, dinner, campfire (boat rental not included in registration fee, last time we rented a rowboat. Fishing is also an option).

Moderate loop hike to Long Lake (https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/long-lake-via-bishop-pass-trail) which starts from the South Lake trailhead and goes part way to Bishop Pass, (https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/chocolate-lakes-loop-trail), tea, pot luck dinner, campfire.

Tuesday, July 7 - Any car campers will break camp and head home by noon. Backpackers will drive to the Sabrina Lake trailhead and park, then hike to Blue Lake and set up camp for 4 nights on the granite benches on the west-side of Blue Lake. Explore the lake, soak your feet, take a dip.

Wednesday, July 8 - Day hike to Baboon Lakes (2 mi. rt, 600 ft. elev. Gain), or Donkey Lake (1 mi. rt, 240 ft. elev. Gain). The view of the Sierra Crest reflecting in the upper Baboon Lake is considered one of the most beautiful spots in the Sabrina Basin.

Thursday, July 9 - day hike to Hungry Packer, Midnight, and Moonlight Lakes (7-8 miles rt, 1,500 ft. elev. Gain/loss). Here is a beautiful blog with pictures and short descriptions of the hike: https://www.out-hiking.com/blog/backpacking-to-hungry-packer-lake-bishop-california

Friday, July 10 - Free day – rest, relax, explore other nearby lakes (e.g. Emerald).

Saturday, July 11 - break camp, hike back down to Sabrina Lake parking lot, drive home

Important Considerations:

Must have at least:

Basic backpacking experience

Some lightweight gear that is suitable for backpacking. Note: Some items may be loaned by the trip leader and/or SDGO as needed but would need to be determined well in advance of the trip.

All food and toiletries for the 4-night, 5-day backpack must be stored and carried in a bear canister in your backpack.

Must be able to carry a 35-40 lb. pack uphill at a moderate pace for 4 miles at elevations from 9,000-11,500 feet.

We will rotate carrying any group equipment (e.g. first aid kit, water filters, mosquito shelter).

After registration, please expect an email from the trip leader, Steve Fitzgerald ([email protected]) to arrange a time to discuss this trip, answer any questions you may have, and make sure it is right for you.

We lucked out and were able to obtain a wilderness pass for up to 10 backpackers in our group!

Priority will be given to those who are able to commit to the entire trip. If you’d like to join but can only participate for part of the trip, please contact Steve to discuss.

Weather: Expect warm days and chilly (low-mid 40s) evenings and mornings. Dressing in layers is the best way to manage the possible range of temperatures. Precipitation is always a possibility, so rain gear is mandatory.

Bring: 10 Essentials for the campout and hike. Steve will send registered backpackers a list of required and recommended gear for the 4-night backpack.

Cost: $40 for tent Camper Only, $50 for Camper/Backpacker, $80 for RV camper only (note: no hookups). When capacity is reached, a waiting list will be in effect. Cancel by June 15 to receive a refund.

Other considerations: As with any backcountry experience, this one is "Leave no Trace" - our trash comes out with us, including toilet paper, and excrement is buried and covered far away from water sources. Active bear area - mandatory use of either bear cannisters or hanging food sacks.

Directions: 370 miles, 6+ hours from San Diego. Take 15 to 215 to 395 N to Bishop. In Bishop, turn left on S Lake Rd (CA 168) and follow it 15 miles to Four Jeffrey Campground in Inyo National Forest, and turn LEFT into the entrance, then right to our reserved sites.

Ready for an Unforgettable Escape? Come join your GO friends to Southern Utah!

Tired of the daily grind? Then it’s time to trade traffic for towering trees and spreadsheets for starry skies! Join your Great Outdoors friends on a five-day, four-night camping adventure in the breathtaking landscapes of Southern Utah!

We’ll be setting up camp at Duck Creek Campground, a peaceful hideaway nestled in the Dixie National Forest near Cedar City—just 450 miles east of LA. You’ll be surrounded by groves of aspen and Douglas fir, with ancient ponderosa pines (some over 500 years old!) standing tall all around you.

There are hiking trails right from camp,Duck Creek Pond and Navajo lake nearby if you feel like casting a line, renting a boat or just kicking back. One day, we’ll hit the trails at Cedar Breaks National Monument—a jaw-dropping natural amphitheater—on a scenic hike along the South Rim Trail (note: there’s a $15–$25 fee per vehicle to enter). We’ll also explore the Mammoth Lava Caves, a wild formation from Utah’s volcanic past.

And if that’s not enough? Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks are just about an hour away. If you forget something or need supplies, Duck Creek Village is just down the road with shops, firewood, and a few local eats.

So….Let’s get outside, breathe in that mountain air, and make some memories!

Sorry because of the limited space, this is tent camping only.

There are no showers so bring your solar shower, however, Pine Wood resorts, which is in Duck Creek Village,offer showers if availability permits, $10/person.
