Let's get some fresh air + bring your camera
Small 🎥 group size ... *preferred!*

**Fall Photography** hike at Cronan Ranch, an interesting Foothill Woodland area.

On this *creative* / *exploratory* outing, we'll hike a small loop on West Ridge + West Ravine Trails. Our hiking pace will be slow/moderate. We'll get a nice workout as we climb West Ridge twice: once on our way in + on our return!

Along our way, we'll observe oak woodlands, foothill views + perhaps, fall 🍁 colors. We’ll take several *creative* breaks to capture photographs *or* simply relax.

For our safety, we'll hike together + stay on/near the established trails. This location is known for mountain 🦁 lion, coyote, rattlesnake + *the dreaded* ... poison oak!

Join us! Hiking + exploring with a group of like-minded folk could add to your experience! *No dogs + no cats!*

In addition to your camera + camera manual, bring hiking boots, trekking poles (optional), 1.5 - 2 liters WATER 💦, snacks, hat, wind breaker, sunscreen, personal 1st aid kit, a small pack to carry your stuff + your sense of humor! Please keep it simple, as you must be able to carry your own gear.

MEET at TRAILHEAD @**8:40am** Cronan Ranch Regional Trails Park,
5091 Pedro Hill Road · Pilot Hill, CA. At this time, there is *no fee* for parking @Cronan Ranch! Restroom is located @far end of parking lot.

**Note:** Trail conditions could be muddy, which may determine the direction we explore. Steady rain *or* extreme wind will cancel!

PLEASE be *aware* of the "wait list". If you have clicked "going" + find you are not able to join us, then please change your R.S.V.P. to "not going". Please do not "**no show**". Thanks!

Important: TRAIL SAFETY!
Please, honestly assess your physical ability to safely complete this hike.
**Your health + your safety = your sole responsibilities.**
