SUMMARY:5-Peaks Grass Mountain Hike with Ella
DESCRIPTION:We will follow a moderately steep trail up to the ridgeline\, then tackle a challenging\, strenuous climb to the summit\, where we will be rewarded with commanding views of the surrounding San Rafael Wilderness. We hope to catch the tail end of the spring wildflower bloom. \nSPECIAL THANKS to Midland School senior students\, who\, at the beginning of April\, carried out trail repairs and brushed back grasses on the Maple Canyon Trail\, Redrock Springs Trail\, and the High Country Loop during their Spring Break week. \nNOTE: This area was severely damaged in the Lake Fire in 2024. It has made an amazing recovery. With donations from community members and a grant from the Santa Barbara Foundation\, the Santa Barbara County Trails Council funded the repairs across the 10-mile-long trail network. \nDetails: \n\nDistance ~5mi\nAscent – 2400ft\nRock scrambling – SOME\nAll Trails Map: Grass Mountain Trail\n\nTrailhead: Lovers Loop Trailhead ( aka Grass Mountain Trailhead)\n1.7 miles past the entrance to Midland School at 5100 Figueroa Mountain Rd\, Santa Ynez\, CA 93460.
