Hello Hikers!
Mother Nature was quite kind to give us a clear weekend in between rainstorms, so I hope everyone got out and got their hike on this weekend! It looks like we’re in for some more rain mid-week, but hopefully it should be clear again by next weekend.
And clear weather is what we want for Winter Solstice! Next Sunday, join the San Diego Natural History Museum Canyoneers as they ascend Cowles Mountain in near-darkness to watch the sunrise on the first day of winter. Their viewing spot is a Kumeyaay solstice observatory, about halfway up the mountain. Meet at the trail head at the corner of Golfcrest Drive and Navajo Road at 6 am. Check out the Canyoneers’ web page for more information, or visit our Events Page to find other hikes and activities!
