Yesterday we drove to a trail called Santa Paula Canyon Trail, about an hours drive, not knowing for sure if it was open. It had been closed. It was open and we hiked almost 7 miles round trip to get up to the waterfall.
It took some aggressive rock scrambling but well worth it! I added a picture of how it flows in the winter, worth a return hike to see it!

Our hike to Newton Canyon Falls. Not much water compared to winter 2016. We found a few, million year old sea shell impressions, crazy?

Enjoyed a beautiful hike today out to Trail Canyon Falls to see what Tuesday's rains did to the waterfall. Not as much rain as we hoped for but still just amazing!

We had our eye on four hikes in one day in the Santa Barbara area. The Gaviota Wind Caves, the Gaviota Hot Springs, the Nojoqui Falls, and Lizard Rock. This is our hike to Nojoqui Falls. The falls were not running that well and the hike was not that long, but they are very very high indeed.

Real hikers hike in the rain, so we set off on this glorious rainy day to find Trail Canyon Falls. All was well until we made a wrong turn upstream and never found the falls!

We crossed the Grand Canyon in 2000, so I thought it was time to once again climb down into the canyon, but this time to see Havasu and Mooney Falls. We also searched for hidden Falls. Robin had Plantar Fasciitis and took the mules down giving him the nickname Mule Boy! He is so stubborn that he and Kia got into it as to where Kia would set up HER group tent, then again while hiking to find Hidden Falls, Robin would not give up, and in the middle of nowhere was going to go it alone! We hiked back a bit, sat down for lunch, and within 15 minutes, here comes Robin limping along!
