DESCRIPTION:This hike\, an HWD Original dating back to early 2009\, is a strenuous 8.5 to 9 miles with 1000 ft net elevation gain (2200 total). A combination of utility roads\, maintained\, unmaintained and disappearing trails will create a dual loop hike. We'll have our post-hike lunch at Lamppost Pizza\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/5/9/f/e/event_14963038.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nWe will start out surrounded by wild lilacs and through a large hidden meadow. Soon we will be hiking among the fanciful sandstone formations\, caves and arches of the Rabbit Ridge Trail.\\n\\n\\n\\nAfter a couple of miles we'll ascend to Simi Peak where on a clear day you can see the Simi Valley\, Conejo Valley\, San Fernando Valley\, Oxnard Plains\, Pacific Ocean\, and a few of the Channel Islands\, and take our snack break.\\n\\n\\n\\n(Other groups have attempted this route to Simi Peak and lost their way)\\n\\n\\n\\nThen its onward to a loop around China Flats\, an open area with clusters of oak trees and a vernal pond. We'll also be hiking with Seamus McFly -- For all you Back to the Future fans\, China Flats was the filming area for 1885 Hill Valley.\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/0/b/7/600_433121143.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nHighlights include\\n\\n\\n\\nOak Park Arch\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/2/1/f/6/event_8528694.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nArtifacts from bygone days\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/5/5/3/8/event_15201816.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nChina Flats Pond\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/3/e/d/event_29626061.jpeg\\n\\n\\n\\nSimi Peak - highest point in Simi\\nLittle Tri Peaks\\nFalcon's Roost\\nThe One Tree\\nHikers' Nest\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://img2.meetupstatic.com/7721728740974823239/img/smileys/tongue.gif\\n\\n\\n\\nI'm too lazy to find photos of each Check out the past hikes and see if you can spot them:\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://www.meetup.com/localhikers/photos/all_photos/?photoAlbumId=4761482\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://justdo262.smugmug.com/photos/swfpopup.mg?AlbumID=17506944&amp\;AlbumKey=H8c5fj\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://www.meetup.com/localhikers/photos/all_photos/?photoAlbumId=813852\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://www.meetup.com/localhikers/photos/all_photos/?photoAlbumId=928739\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://www.meetup.com/localhikers/photos/all_photos/?photoAlbumId=607241\\n\\n\\n\\nhttp://www.meetup.com/localhikers/photos/all_photos/?photoAlbumId=480962\\n\\n\\n\\nExperienced hikers only.
