DESCRIPTION:http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/8/d/2/600_450287314.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nLaguna Coast Wilderness Park lies within some of the last remaining coastal canyons in Southern California. Forty miles of trails lead the visitor through oak and sycamore woodlands and up onto ridges with expansive scenic vistas. Rocky bluffs tower above the canyon trails.\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/9/0/2/600_450287362.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nOn this 8-10 mile hike with 1500-2500 ft total ascent we'll see California as it has existed for thousands of years. The Coastal Sage Scrub community covers hilltops and slopes\, along with patches of Native Valley Grassland and Maritime Chaparral. In the canyons we can find riparian habitats lined by Willow\, Oak\, and Sycamore trees. After a plentiful winter rain\, the ephemeral streams spring to life. In the summer\, we'll easily pass through the seasonally dry creek beds.\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/a/5/d/600_450287709.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nI've hiked most of the trails here but I don't have a definite path in my mind yet. Some of trails will include:\\n\\n\\n\\nWillow Canyon\\nLaurel Canyon\\nBommer Ridge\\nSerrano Ridge\\nLittle Sycamore Canyon\\nStagecoach Trail\\nLizard Trail (New!)\\nA Secret Trail (of course)\\n\\n\\n\\nWe'll take a break at the Nix Nature Center\, headquarters for the Laguna Coast Wilderness Park. It will be a welcome respite where you can refill your water bottles\, buy snacks and do your business.\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/7/d/8/600_450287064.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nPost Hike Lunch -\\n\\n\\n\\nPanini Cafe (http://mypaninicafe.com/)\\n8505 Irvine Center Dr\\nIrvine\, 92618\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/a/1/5/600_451183541.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nTrailhead Directions and Parking\\n\\n\\n\\nPlease refer to Google Maps for directions from your location.

Just take the 133 back up to the 405\, go south 1/4 mile and take the first exit -- Irvine Center Dr -- make a right and go left (U-turn at next street) into Los Olivos Marketplace.
