Join on a 4-mile geology hike (600 ft. elevation gain) over level to steep terrain. Hike through the oak-filled woodland of Wood Canyon and then ascend to the park’s highest peak. We’ll be hiking up a great stack of layered rock (Formations) , each being several hundred feet in thickness. Each Formation tells a different story, stories of ancient times, from great deposits of sand, origin of caves, a time of submarine landslides, and a time when a great shell-filled limestone reef formed. This is an intermediate-level hike.
