It's a beautiful but strenuous loop over and around
many typical Southern Calif hills.
This walk was about 5 miles in all with a lot of elevation changes
especially the first half mile to and from the parking lot.
I wouldn't have turned down a horse ride to the Daley Ranch House.
Don't drink the water!
Daley Ranch provides signs to identify various native
plant species alongside the trails.
