Park in the dirt lot at the corner of Bushy Hill Dr. and Father Junipero Serra Trail as this is outside the gate. Gates are locked at 7 p.m. Don't get locked in as you will not be able to get out and you will get a ticket.

Please self-evaluate your hiking level before going on this hike.

Afterwards, we can go out to eat and continue fellowship.
