Hello Hikers!
Holy heat index Batman! This is not good hiking weather my friends. According to the forecast, it looks like today should be the worst of it though, so hopefully we’ll be back to perfect San Diego weather before too long. In the meantime, I suggest lots of liquids and lying very still.
There’s good news on the recent proposal to ban off-trail hiking in certain areas of State Parks. The UT has an article explaining that the decision to implement this rule would be made by the individual parks, and that Anza-Borrego would not implement such a rule. There is a public meeting this Wedensday, June 22, from 6 p.m.- 8.pm. at the San Diego County Operations Center, 5520 Overland Ave., San Diego where you can voice your opinion on the proposed rules.
The County of San Diego Parks and Recreation has announced the grand opening of a new trail at the San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Preserve. “Once off-limits and prone to vandalism, Annie’s Canyon Trail has been cleaned and restored to its natural state. This moderately strenuous quarter-mile loop trail connects to both the Solana Hills Trail and the N. Rios Avenue Trail in Solana Beach.” There will be a grand opening and inaugural trek this Tuesday from 1 p.m. – 3 p.m., check out their Facebook Event for more information, or contact Jessica Geiszler at 858-955-1331 or jessica.geiszler@sdcounty.ca.gov.
