Hello Hikers!

I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday and got a chance to hike off some of that excess pie. It looks like the mountains even had a bit of snow over the holiday. It appears its going to warm up just a bit over the upcoming week and remain clear, so it should be perfect hiking weather.

Next Saturday you can join the San Diego Natural History Museum Canyoneers as they hike the Engelmann Oak Loop at Daley Ranch. This is an intermediate 5 mile hike with elevation change of up to 1000 feet. Daley Ranch provides several habitats that support a variety of plant and animal species. Walk among Engelmann oaks beside a stream that runs most of the year. Visit the Canyoneers’ web site for more information, or visit our Events Page to find even more upcoming hikes and events.

Apparently we’ve all been very good little hikers this year, because Amazon has tons of great deals this week on some of the most popular outdoor brands including CamelBak, Kelty, Osprey, Icebreaker, Under Armour, and many others:

Have a good week!
