Sky Island Trail Family Hike, Saturday, November 15th

On Saturday, November 15th, join Volcan Mountain Foundation Education Coordinator, Kathleen Beck from 9am-Noon, to explore VMF’s Sky Island Trail located at the upper ‘mile-high’ property.

Approximately 1.5 miles long, the trail is an easy ascent starting among ancient pines, oaks and firs, and finishing with spectacular 300 degree views of the county’s mountains and coast.  Past the gated access, on the drive up to the trailhead, participants will make a brief stop to visit a part of Ironside Springs, the headwaters of Santa Ysabel Creek, and experience a mixed conifer forest similar to that found in parts of Northern California, and rarely seen in San Diego County.

This free activity is appropriate for ages 5 and up accompanied by a responsible adult.  Space is limited.  Due to the gated entry, please RSVP to VMF Education Coordinator, Kathleen Beck by Friday, November 14th at 760-518-3273 or [email protected], and plan to arrive between 8:45 and 8:55.
