Join us for an activity that's both enjoyable and healthy. On the third Thursday of each month we'll hike together along some lovely trails close to Pasadena, and a few a bit further away. Details about each hike, including where to meet, will be sent by email and posted on the web site. There's no need to book or RSVP, just turn up at 8:30 am at the meeting place and bring a hat, some water and a snack. Children and dogs welcome. Rain cancels.

 

Join us for our next hike on Thursday, June 21at 8:30 am. The May hike has been moved to June. We'll hike in the Santa Susannas up the only route for stagecoaches between LA and San Francisco from 1860 to 1890. Fairly steep. Meet on Larwin Drive just south of the junction with Devonshire Avenue in Chatsworth (only half an hour from Pasadena on the 118 freeway). Car pooling available.

 

Phone or email babs.ellis(at)gmail.com, 626-319-8285 or 626-564-9107, for car pooling.

 

Suggested difficulty of hikes: 1, easy; 2, moderate, some ups and downs; 3, longer distance, more ups and downs.
