    • Condor Trail
      The Condor Trail is a thru-hiking route designed to connect the northern and southern portions of the Los Padres National Forest by a single hiking trail. The trail is approximately 400 miles long and extends from Lake Piru (border of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties) in the south to Botchers Gap (just south of Monterey, CA) in the north.

    • Lost Coast Trail
      This trail is so named because the coast is so rugged that when they built Highway 101 they had to veer 30 miles inland. It's the longest stretch of California coastline without a road. And it's wild. Read this Overview of the Lost Coast Trail, and ask your questions here.

    • Theodore Solomons Trail
      The Theodore Solomons Trail was created in 1974, but has since fallen out of the spotlight. This forum is for anyone interested in re-discovering this alternative to the more heavily-travelled John Muir Trail.
