Meet Dave at Figueroa mountain Brewery

The Brewery is adding on more capacity - Thats GOOD!

Parking off Hot Springs Road, at base on canyon

Elevation at start

Start of trail

The climb out of the canyon is shady

1st view of the Pacific, Santa Barbara and Santa Cruz Island

About 1/2 way up; but this was the easy half

Santa Cruz Island is pretty good size

200 yards on this road, & then the trail turns up (far right)

Heading up...

With a long way to go

Views on the way up

The biggest tree on the entire hike

required at least

3 picyures

Much of the trail is all rock

Some is all dirt

This gets you to the base of the peak

Me from afar

The last 500 feet of elevation is almost straight up

Me from afar

This was taken from the next ridge over

The ridge line is West Camino Cielo

Elevation at the top

No more climbing happy face

The following are all the pictures I took at the top

There is a hanglider up there, but too small to see in this picture

I figure if I went to this much trouble, I will show all pictures

East Camino Cielo

Santa Barbara

Looking South

Looking North

You must leave the trail to get to the top

This is a different hanglider

He came a lot closer

Self panaroma thingee

MOVIE from the top

Dave left the peak on a slightly different path and..

..ended up over there - 1st peak (center of Pic)

This is not a rocky cliff face on the side of the trail

This IS THE trail, and the one the idiots were biking down

Near the bottom there is water

Fresh water in California is always worth..

…taking pictures of

not much of a waterfall, but it is one

Waiting for that Hamburger...
