REGISTER
On Monday evening, September 20, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., I’ll lead a Full Moon Sunset Nature Hike above the Ojai Valley where we can watch the sunset followed by the rising of the full moon. We’ll gradually hike about 1.25 miles each way to a vista point with some elevation gain on a well-worn, dirt fire road with some uneven footing in places. Before sunset, we’ll stop along the way to meet some valuable edible and medicinal plants, possibly including:
California Buckwheat
Black Walnut
Toyon
Black & Purple Sage
Coastal Sagebrush
Prickly-Pear
After witnessing the sunset and moonrise, we’ll walk back to the trailhead by remaining daylight, moonlight, and flashlight, returning to the trailhead at about 8:30 p.m.
Rain or chance of thunderstorms will cancel the hike. No dogs or smoking, please.
