About this event
Hike & Sketch or Sit & Paint at Rancho San Vicente, Calero County Park, Morgan Hill
Thursday, February 8, 2024 (10:00 am - 2:00 pm)
This POST (Peninsula Open Space Trust) protected trail has views of rolling hills and Mt. Umunhum. Hikers will leave from the parking lot and take a moderate 1.5 mile hike to lookouts along the North Ridge. It may be too early for most wildflowers but if our timing is right, the rolling hills will be blooming in yellow mustard.
There are vistas near the parking lot for nonhikers.
