SUMMARY:Spooky Story Time at the Charles Manson Family Cave 👻
DESCRIPTION:🎶It’s creepy and it’s spooky🎶\nImagine it’s 1969\, you’re 13 years old and going horseback riding at Spahn ranch. You arrive and notice the owner and ranch hands are nowhere to be seen. Instead\, you are greeted by a charming young man – the notorious Charles Manson! He saddles you up and off you go through the hills\, and the trails\, and Charles’ hippie commune. That’s my true story and I’ll tell you more at the family cave. \nI want to hear your spooky stories too. \nThe Hike\nMy hikes are slow paced (1.5-2 mph) and the end time is approximate only. We take breaks\, we explore\, and we don’t leave anyone behind. If this hike is not what you are looking for\, please find another that best suits your needs. Thank you. \nThis is a moderate 3.75-mile loop hike with an elevation gain of about 692′. \n\nClick here to view the All Trails map\n\nMeet me at the south side of Rocky Peak Road\, along the Santa Susana Pass\, at 3:00pm. We will start promptly at 3:10pm. Please give yourself ample time to arrive and find parking. \nOur spooky hike begins with a short walk down the Santa Susana Pass Road to the trail. We will ascend an average distance with some ups and downs before descending into the canyon and to the family cave. As we get closer to the cave\, we may find some interesting artifacts that may have been put there by Manson himself. \nWe will take a break and share our spooky stories when we reach the family cave located in a creek bed near the pass road. Spahn Ranch itself is overgrown and not easy to walk through but I will point out where it’s located which is not far from the cave. \nDetails \n\nHigh winds\, rain\, hot weather\, or fire will cancel this hike\nSunset: 6:09pm. Last light: 6:33pm\nParking: Free\nTerrain: single track\, rocky ground\nDifficulty: Fit beginner\, intermediate\nRestrooms: no\nDogs: Yes\, only if leashed\nKnown Dangers: slip and fall\, rattlesnakes\, poison oak\n\nEssentials \n\nBring 2 liters of water\, flashlights\, snacks\, electrolytes\nBring your hiking poles if needed.\nWear good hiking boots/shoes\, sunscreen\, hat\nBring a jacket for cooler weather\nBug spray\nVentura County SARS 10 Essentials\n\nDirections \n\nGoogle Coordinates: 34.267166\,-118.634895\nClick here to view the Google Map\nFrom the 118 freeway\, take the Rocky Peak Road exit between Simi and Chatsworth.
