SUMMARY:HWD Ranch - Mormon Canyon Loop
DESCRIPTION:Another HWD Original! \nThe world-famous HWD Ranch is located within the stunning Hidden Creeks parkland near the confluence of Browns Creek and Mormon Creek. The parkland provides a key migration corridor and perennial water source to a full complement of large mammals including black bear\, mountain lion\, mule deer\, bobcat\, American badger\, grey fox\, long-tailed weasel\, ring-tailed cat\, and the endangered California Condor. \nNature won’t be the only thing we’ll experience. We may get a chance to meet Ferdinand\, a bull that roams the area and a couple of wild horses. There are lots of old artifacts to explore along the way\, including old ranch houses\, abandoned ranch vehicles\, a dam and much more! So expect a lot of stops along the way. \nHIKE IS 6 MILES WITH ABOUT 1\,000 FT TOTAL ASCENT AND IS RATED MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nDIRECTIONS:\nSee detailed instructions here \nHead toward the address given. You are going to park in a turnout on Brown’s Canyon Rd on either side of driveway to old Misty Hollow Ranch – now owned by MRCA \nThere is an old for-sale sign post. You can park in turnout immediately before or immediately after that. We’ll meet in the driveway by that signpost

SUMMARY:Gates Canyon - Upper Las Virgenes Loop
DESCRIPTION:I’ve put together a new combination of trails in the Calabasas foothills and western San Fernando Valley. Lots of local movie and development history here. \nThe Upper Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve—still fondly known as Ahmanson Ranch—offers some of the most inviting and varied hiking in the western San Fernando Valley\, with rolling grasslands\, oak-dotted hills\, and wide-open views that change beautifully with the seasons. Be on the lookout for red-tailed hawks\, meadowlarks\, quail\, coyotes\, and the occasional bobcat. \n🎬Our hike begins in Gates Canyon where the trail climbs steadily through a narrow oak-lined canyon bringing us to Lasky Mesa. Thanks to its wide-open grasslands and unobstructed horizon\, Lasky Mesa has one of the richest movie histories in the Los Angeles area\, including the burning of Atlanta scene in Gone With the Wind (1939). Over the decades the area continued to appear in films\, TV shows\, and commercials that needed a natural\, undeveloped backdrop. \n👩‍🌾From here we’ll loop over to the Ahmanson Ranch House for a short break. Wealthy financier and landholder\, George E. Barrett purchased the land in the 1930s. Around 1938\, Barrett built the ranch house that still stands today. Under Barrett’s ownership\, the ranch functioned as a horse- and stock-farm and occasional getaway — but it was also connected to the area’s film-ranch history. \n💰It’s called Ahmanson Ranch because the land was purchased in 1963 by Home Savings of America\, the banking institution founded and led by philanthropist Howard F. Ahmanson\, Sr.\, for a large scale residential development. Those development plans were ultimately halted — and the property was preserved as public open space in 2003. \n📈After the ranch visit we’ll descend into eastern Las Virgenes Canyon and then back up to Gates Canyon trail to complete a 9 mile loop with 1\,600 feet total ascent. Hike is rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nDIRECTIONS\nPark in Gates Canyon Park and meet at far end by tennis courts. There is some street parking in front of park.

SUMMARY:📅First Hike of 2026: Fryman - Franklin Foray
DESCRIPTION:Beginning the hike at the U-Vanu Trail on Viewcrest Drive immediately gives the outing a quieter\, more residential feel than the main Fryman Canyon entrances. The trail slips gently away from the street and begins a steady climb through chaparral and low brush\, with filtered views back toward the San Fernando Valley opening up as you gain elevation. It feels calm and local at first\, as if you’ve discovered a back door into the hills. \nAs the U-Vanu Trail rises\, the terrain becomes more open and sunlit\, and the path connects naturally into the broader Fryman Canyon trail network. Here the hike takes on a more energetic rhythm\, with wider fire roads\, airy ridgelines\, and expansive views that contrast with the tucked-away feel of the trailhead. This section delivers the classic Fryman experience: steady climbing\, open skies\, and a sense of space above the city. \nNear Mulholland Drive\, the route crests the ridge and transitions toward Franklin Canyon. Crossing over\, the landscape changes quickly—oak and sycamore trees replace scrub\, the trail narrows\, and the air cools as you descend. The shift from Fryman’s exposed hills to Franklin’s shaded canyon feels dramatic and refreshing. \nA brief stop at the TreePeople exhibits adds a thoughtful pause\, offering insight into local ecology\, water conservation\, and the relationship between these canyons and Los Angeles. Deeper in Franklin Canyon\, the trail meanders past creek beds and historic stone features to the Franklin Canyon Reservoir\, where wildlife and still water create a peaceful midpoint. \nThe hike concludes by climbing back out of Franklin Canyon and returning to Fryman Canyon\, eventually reconnecting with the U-Vanu route. The final stretch restores the views and sunlight\, completing a satisfying loop that blends neighborhood access\, open ridgelines\, shaded canyon trails\, and a full-circle return to Viewcrest Drive. \nHike is rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nDIRECTIONS\nPark on street close to the corner of Laurel Terrace and Viewcrest. We’ll meet on Viewcrest near corner

SUMMARY:🚶‍♂️‍➡️Easy Hike: The New Paramount Ranch (from Reagan Ranch)
DESCRIPTION:We were here last May and found a new old west is rising! Let’s check out the continiuing rebuilding progress of the famous Old Western Town at Paramount Ranch with this easy hike. \n📽️As many of you know\, until the Woolsey fire\, this was the filming site of hundreds of movies and TV shows since 1927. The Woolsey Fire destroyed the original Western Town buildings. Only two structures survived: a white chapel built for “Westworld” and a train depot built for “Dr. Quinn\, Medicine Woman.” \n🏎️The ranch site also was also the home of a world class race track in the late 50s. \nThe National Park Service is building a new Paramount Ranch set to house four buildings on the footprint of the historic structures\, and all will be built with an eye toward wildfire safety. Plans for the new structures include a prop shed\, barn\, restrooms and a large pavilion\, which all could be used for events and as “the backbone for future filming.” The chapel and depot will remain in place. \nLet’s check out the progress! \n👉Hike will be about 4 miles with 400′ of total ascent and rated EASY. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide. Depending on group\, we can easily add more elevation. \nGetting There\nIn order to respect the NPS parking limits we will be parking and meeting at the old Reagan Ranch in Malibu Creek State Park and hiking into Paramount Ranch. See Google map.

SUMMARY:Towsley Canyon
DESCRIPTION:This outing follows a counterclockwise lollipop loop that blends wide canyon roads\, singletrack\, and ridgeline views for a well-rounded\, moderate hike. \nWe’ll start from the Rivendale Ranch trailhead and head up Towsley Canyon Road\, an easy\, gradual warm-up through oak-studded canyon bottoms. From there\, we’ll turn onto the Towsley View Loop Trail\, climbing steadily through shaded sections\, a narrow sandstone gorge\, and classic chaparral slopes. Going counterclockwise keeps the ascent manageable and rewards us with expanding views of the Santa Clarita Valley as we gain elevation. The high point along the ridge sits around 2\,400 feet\, offering wide-open vistas and a good place to pause and take it in. \nFrom the ridge\, we’ll descend into Wiley Canyon\, then complete the loop using the Canyon View Loop Trail\, which rolls gently back toward the trailhead without retracing our steps. The full route is about 5.4 miles with roughly 1\,100–1\,400 feet of elevation gain\, \nEcologically\, this hike is a snapshot of Southern California chaparral. Along the way you’ll see coast live oaks\, sycamores\, sage\, buckwheat\, chamise\, manzanita\, and scrub oak. In winter and spring\, wildflowers like mustard\, lupine\, and poppies often add color to the hillsides. Wildlife commonly spotted here includes lizards\, ground squirrels\, rabbits\, mule deer\, and a wide variety of birds such as red-tailed hawks\, vultures\, quail\, and scrub jays. Rattlesnakes do live in the area\, so we’ll stay alert\, especially in warmer weather. \nOverall\, this is a scenic\, rewarding hike that feels wild without being remote—perfect for experiencing Towsley Canyon at its best. \nHike is rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Rating Guide \nDIRECTIONS\nPull into Towsley Canyon Park and find a parking spot. We’ll meet in the first lot after gate. See pin in Google Map link

SUMMARY:Hail To The Trail: Presidents' Day Hike at the Old Reagan Ranch
DESCRIPTION:An HWD Classic! \nThis hike is sponsored by Amazon – https://amzn.to/2GnCP0a \nDuring the 1950s\, when Ronald Reagan hosted TV’s “Death Valley Days\,” he wanted a more rural retreat than his home in Pacific Palisades. So he bought a 305-acre ranch in the hills of Malibu as a place to raise thoroughbred horses and dubbed it “Yearling Row.” \nReagan Ranch (1957-1967)\, now part of Malibu Creek State Park\, is a delight for hikers\, who can enjoy the ranch’s rolling meadow land and grand old oaks. Trails loop through the Reagan Ranch and connect with the main part of the state park. We’ll use a combination of trails–Yearling\, Deer Leg\, Lookout\, Crags Road and Cage Canyon–to explore Reagan Country and the heart of the park\, including Century Lake. \nHike will be about 5.5 miles with 1\,000 feet total ascent and is rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Ratings Guide – \nDIRECTIONS \nThe Old Reagan Ranch parking lot is on the Southeast corner of Cornell Rd and Mullholland Hwy \nIMPORTANT \nTrail statistics are approximate. For safety purposes always assume they are underestimated. But don’t be disappointed if they are overestimated. Bring more water and snacks than you think you’ll need. \nTrail descriptions are based on previous hikes. Current conditions are unknown until arrival. Expect the unexpected and plan accordingly. \nThe Organizers and members in this group are not professional leaders\, guides\, or mountaineers.

We’ll use a combination of trails–Yearling\, Deer Leg\, Lookout\, Crags Road and Cage Canyon–to explore Reagan Country and the heart of the park\, including Century Lake. \nHike will be about 5.5 miles with 1\,000 feet total ascent and is rated MEDIUM. See the HWD Hike Ratings Guide – \nDIRECTIONS \nThe Old Reagan Ranch parking lot is on the Southeast corner of Cornell Rd and Mullholland Hwy \n  \nIMPORTANT \nTrail statistics are approximate.
