DESCRIPTION:This is an evening hike from the Trippet Ranch in Topanga State Park to the Parker Mesa Overlook. The first section of the trail meanders through a lovely oak grove with lush green grass. Above Trippet Ranch\, the trail traverses the ridgeline between Topanga and Santa Ynez Canyons\, with views of giant sandstone slabs and the ocean peaking out between the folds of the mountains.\\n\\n\\n\\nPerched high above the Palisades and Malibu\, the vista from the Parker Mesa Overlook is stunning. As you watch the sunset\, you can see all of the LA basin laid out before you\, the San Gabriel Mountains to the north\, Catalina Island to the south\, and the crescent shaped coastline of Santa Monica to the east.\\n\\n\\n\\nIt will take some work to get there. The hike is 7 miles round trip with a 400' elevation gain\, but with a few ups and downs in between for a total elevation gain of about 2000' (according to my calculations). We will have a bite to eat at the top.\\n\\n\\n\\nDIRECTIONS:\\nFrom the Ventura Freeway (101)\, exit at Topanga Canyon Boulevard\, drive south over the crest of the mountains and proceed three miles to Entrada Road and turn left. Keep to the left at every opportunity until you reach the park's main parking lot (about one mile)\\n\\n\\n\\nFrom Pacific Coast Highway\, travel north on Topanga Canyon Boulevard\, pass the post office at the center of "town\," then turn right on Entrada Road.\\n\\n\\n\\nParking is $5.00 (exact change) in Park. There is some street parking on Entrada a several yards before the gate.\\n\\n\\n\\nBring at least 1 qt of water\, food\, camera and an optional flashlight.
LOCATION:Topanga State Park\, 20829 Entrada Rd\, Trippet Ranch
