From the Introduction: “Welcome to the Backbone Trail — sixty-five miles of mountainous travel from Will Rogers State Historic park to Point Mugu. Hidden in the mountain ridges and recesses, the trail guides us through woodlands, past waterfalls, over grasslands, and to remote and secluded places. Isolated from civilization, this trail offers adventure, excitement, and the opportunity to observe nature in an almost undisturbed state.”
