Hello Hikers!
I hope everyone’s been enjoying this cooler and getting some hiking in, because it looks like things are going to warm up again starting Wednesday. Come on, winter!
We are happy to report that the bald eagle that was found near death in Ramona has recovered and been released back to the wild. Awesome work by the Fund for Animals Wildlife Center!
Almost 27 miles of new trails are being added to the existing trail system on Catalina Island. The new trails will connect with the island’s existing trails and offer visitors a greater variety of hiking experiences, including shorter loops that can be done in a few hours. Ideally the trails will be completed by next summer, however weather conditions may cause delays.
Next weekend take the kids out to one of San Diego County Park’s Haunted Trails hikes. Hikes are happening at Dos Picos County Park, Oakoasis Preserve, and Sweetwater Regional Park. Check out the County Parks and Recreation Guide for more details, or check out our Events Page for even more upcoming hikes and events.
