About This Event

Some say the open spaces and trails lacing Porter Ranch serves as a nice model for community development. Others will argue that the Valley would be a better place without the square miles of new housing developments. But at least we still have the opportunity to wander the remaining vestiges of two riparian canyons and a cliff-rimmed hillside blanketed with aromatic sage.

So let us set out for the suburban stronghold of Porter Ranch for a variegated 8 mile loop through the hidden wilds and wild suburbia of the north valley including Aliso and Limekiln Canyons. Total Ascent is 1000 ft.

We'll take our snack/lunch break at "E.T. Park" (Aliso Canyon Park, where they filmed ET)
