The second half of the route will explore the Skyline Drive / Clark's Ranch area before crossing back over the Santa Ana towards camp.
Individual trail ratings/info:
Gold Mountain (8235 feet) - Most Difficult, hard hit by the last few winters so lots of new rocks, ruts and shelfs where there used to be good road.
Jacoby Canyon - More Difficult, a few rocky spots, but not much has changed on this trail. Wildflowers were still present on the pre-run.
LOGISTICS:
This approximately 40-mile route will take 6 to 8 hours to complete depending on size of group, vehicle capability, and how long we spend at lunch/picture spots. Bring lunch with you, as we'll be stopping for lunch along the trail. We'll be heading out from camp, and will make a fuel stop on our way over to the first trail. I have not thoroughly explored the Skyline/Clark portion of this trip, so some route-finding may be involved.
