    PRE-NEW YEAR'S DAY WALK/HIKE: BOB JONES TRAIL

    Walk along this paved, shady trail along San Luis Obispo Creek to Avila Beach. The group will meet up at the parking lot. It is approximately 5 miles out and back, relatively flat with 108 ft elevation gain (AllTrails, 2025). The smooth paved pathway makes it accessible for visitors using wheelchairs, mobility equipment, bikes, and strollers. There are benches along the trail, perfect for taking a break as well as for bird-watching or people-watching. Sycamore and oak trees are plentiful along the trail. We will pass by the Secret Garden Cafe at Sycamore Resort and Spa, as well as Woodstone Marketplace at San Luis Bay Estates, for your beverage or snack needs. Part of the trail passes through a bridge within the Avila Beach Golf Course, where one can see golfers make a slice while the ducks enjoy the watery scene. The turning point of this walk will be the end of Avila Beach Park overlooking the ocean, and a short walk to the promenade and the pier. (Optional: walk along the promenade [store front] and the pier for mileage). Public restrooms are available at the parking lot and at the turning point by the beach. Don’t forget your “Walking Essentials” and hydration packs!

    "I would like to acknowledge that these are the traditional lands of the Chumash people who lived in this area, and I would like to express my gratitude for their stewardship of the land." 

    WHEN: DEC 30th @ 10 AM.

    WHERE TO PARK: Bob Jones Trail, 7009 Ontario Road, San Luis Obispo, CA 93405 (Google Map: 7009 Ontario Rd Parking).

    LA- Hike: Stunt High Trail to Saddle Peak- Calabasas

    Date: ​January 3, 2025

    Time: ​10:00 AM- 2:30 PM

    Distance: ​8 miles round trip

    Elevation gain:​ 1677’

    Difficulty: ​Moderate to Difficult



    What to Bring: Good hiking boots/shoes with good tread, hiking pole, lunch, snacks, plenty of water, sun protection, jacket.

    Hike Leader: Russell Hammerl, [email protected]

    Directions: From 101 -Mulholland HWY -Stunt Road, 1.0 mile -shortly past pedestrian crossing sign -park and gather at the pullout on the right. (Map click here)

    What to Bring: Good hiking boots/shoes with good tread, hiking pole, lunch, snacks, plenty of water, sun protection, layered clothing. Carry emergency contact information.

    Carpool: http://www.groupcarpool.com/t/vp5ui4

    After the hike: Late lunch or coffee at nearby restaurant depending on interest of participants.

    Restroom: A single portable is located 30 feet from the trailhead.

    Rain Cancels: 

    Let's start the new year with a fabulous hike! This trail is one of the treasures of the Santa Monica Mountains. Stunt High Trail begins with a pleasant shaded walk next to Cold Creek. Along the way we will pass through five distinct plant communities: riparian, oak woodland, coastal sage, chaparral, and grassland.

    There is a terrific payoff at the end of a steady climb in the way of panoramic views and dramatic sandstone formations at the top of Saddle Peak. This is the sixth tallest summit in the Santa Monica Mountain range at 2805 feet. The views go from downtown LA to Santa Barbara Island to the snowcapped peaks of the San Gabriel Mountains and the entire Santa Monica Bay. Near the top is an interesting passage along the sandstone cliffs. Rock climbers are often seen precariously above the trail.

    The hike is a bit of a challenge, but we’ll take our time to enjoy the views, plants, and geology. 


    Much of the trail has a canopy of trees and shrubs. It is a great hike.

    Fiesta Island Dog Park & Inland Hike


    Fiesta Island, a spacious peninsula within Mission Bay, is known for its expansive ocean views, open landscape, and relaxed coastal vibe. It features one of the largest off-leash dog parks in San Diego and regularly hosts charity walks, bicycle races, time trials, and special events like the annual over-the-line tournament. In the evenings, visitors often stay to watch the dazzling SeaWorld fireworks, which reflect off the bay and can be seen from across the island. Despite its popularity, Fiesta Island supports a surprising number of rare, threatened, and endangered bird and plant species, making it both a recreational and ecological landmark. It's also a key site during the San Diego Bayfair Cup, a premier hydroplane boat race on the H1 Unlimited circuit.

    We'll start our hike near the restrooms on the west side of Fiesta Island, entering through the gate and passing the benches as we make our way toward the western shoreline. This area is a popular launch point for jet skis and water skiing. From there, we'll continue south along the edge of the island, where you'll get a great view of the SeaWorld tower in the distance. It’s a perfect spot for photos, which we can share later on the Great Outdoors Facebook group.

    After enjoying the view, we'll head inland and follow the path looping back toward the entrance. A smaller trail on the opposite side of the road leads through a quiet park area with benches—an ideal place to rest and take in the scenery before making our way back.


    Start Time and Location: 3pm Fiesta Island Dog Park (see map below)

    Event Specific Challenges (stairs, animals, allergens): sand, bodies of water, wildlife, dogs

    Parking Information: free parking near park entrance

    Costs involved: none

    Pets Permitted: obviously! 

    What to Bring: Your dog or love of dogs

    • PS - Camping - Salton Sea - Mecca Beach Campground - SAVE THE DATE

      • Thu, March 12, 2026
      • 2:00 PM
      • Sun, March 15, 2026
      • 12:00 PM
      • Mecca Beach, Salton Sea, CA

      Come and experience the Salton Sea for yourself, and discover why it is one of the most extraordinary and fascinating places in California. It is a unique place with many hidden treasures and secrets that are not well known. It has been forgotten as a busy tourist attraction of bygone years. Today, we have an amazing place to visit and explore. The sunsets and sunrises are stunning and peaceful. You should take the opportunity to experience it before its receding water levels cause it to change and vanish.

      One of the world's largest inland seas and lowest spots on earth at -227 below sea level, Salton Sea was re-created in 1905 when high spring flooding on the Colorado River crashed the canal gates leading into the developing Imperial Valley. For the next 18 months the entire volume of the Colorado River rushed downward into the Salton Trough. By the time engineers were finally able to stop the breaching water in 1907, the Salton Sea had been born at 45 miles long and 20 miles wide – equaling about 130 miles of shoreline. Salton Sea State Recreation Area covers 14 miles of the northeastern shore. Campers, birdwatchers, photographers and hikers can enjoy the site's many recreation opportunities. View the Salton Sea Recreation Area Brochure here.

      We will be camping at the Mecca Beach campground at the Salton Sea Recreation Area (SRA). The meet and greet, potluck and other activities will take place there. March is an ideal time to visit with mild temperatures.  Mecca Beach Campground is remote.  The markets and activities are a 20+ minute drive from the campground.  This campground is 50 yards from the water. In recent years, most life in the Salton Sea has perished, so there is no more massive fish die-offs, which means there is no longer that potent scent.  In fact there is typically no smell coming from the sea at all.  The sea itself is awe-inspiring.  You should not swim in the water at Salton Sea, nor should you allow your dogs to drink the water.  It is heavily polluted with fertilizer chemicals from farm run-off.  

      Activities could include hiking a slot canyon in the Mecca Hills, a 4x4 excursion, or an easy hike to the Visitor Center to view exhibits and a video on the Salton Sea.  Other activities could be a road trip to Niland area sites, including Salvation Mountain and East Jesus in Slab City, Obsidian Butte, the mud pot volcanoes, and the Salton Sea Reclamation Project. Check the whiteboard for updated activities info.

      NOTE:  This event is limited to GO members.  When you register, you'll need to have your credit card ready and pay your registration fee within 15 mins. If you are not a member yet, you can first join as a member online (click here) and then return here to register.

      Amenities for Tent Campers: This is a good campground for tent campers. The campsites are huge, level ,and sandy with trees that provide shade.  Sites are shared with another tent or an RV.  Parking is also shared between the two campers. If you want to share the space with another tent or a specific camper, send the Trip Leader an email and we will try and arrange it.

If you tent camp at a powered site you may be able to share power with an RV.  Bring a long outdoor extension cord, an outdoor splitter and a 30 amp RV male to 15/20 amp female adapter plug to give you flexibility in sharing power with an RV. 

      Climate: Average for March: 83° / 49°    U.S.Climate Data. March can be windy, rainy, and/or cold overnight.  Check the weather forecasts before the campout, so that you can be prepared for the weekend's weather conditions. 

      Amenities For RVs:  

      • RV Electric Sites – The RV powered sites have 20, 30 & 50 amp service, and water service. The RV sites will be shared with a tent or another RV. Bring a water hose splitter and a 50 to 30 amp adapter. The RV electric sites have a sewer connection. At the end of the campout, RV's should be able to dump at the dump station located at New Camp which is included in your registration fee. If you registered for a non-electric RV site, fresh water is available at the dump site to fill your RV tank before arriving at your site at the Mecca Beach campground.
      • RV Non-Electric Sites are dry camping sites – no hookups. QUIET HOURS are from 10 pm to 6 am and generators may only be operated between 10 am and 8 pm. See New Camp below for dump site information.
      • Maximum motor home length at Mecca Beach is 35 feet,
      • There are only four electric sites at Mecca Beach. If you require electric power and water there are electric sites at New Camp and Visitor Center sites located one mile north of Mecca Beach; if you choose to reserve your own site, you can register here as D1 'reserved your own site'.

      Directions:   The campground is located 30 miles south of Indio on Highway 111. Located on the north shore of the Salton Sea, it is about a three hour drive from the Los Angeles or San Diego areas. From Los Angeles, take Interstate 10 east to Indio, take 86S exit then turn left at Avenue 66, then right onto Highway 111. Go south about 12 miles to the Salton Sea SRA Headquarters entrance.

        Every fabulously original restaurant is included with more choices than any other ship at sea. All you need to do is decide whether to indulge in fresh Italian at Extra Virgin, Korean BBQ at Gumbae, an inventive tasting menu at the Test Kitchen, brunch or steak at the Wake, all-day treats at Razzle Dazzle, and so much more. And there’s no buffet in sight. Or a massive banquet-like main hall. But who needs one with all these amazing spots?

        Oh, and by basic beverages we mean sodas, water, coffees, juices, and most non-alcoholic offerings. The hard stuff is, of course, extra.

        Hawaii Big Island Day Hikes

        Tues 4/28/26 and Thu 4/30/26

        Hawaii is full of attractions that are unlike anything else in the world, but even among these unique wonders, Hawaii’s volcanoes stand out as truly remarkable. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii protects some of these natural marvels, including two of the world's largest and most active volcanoes.

        Come join me for day hikes at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and on the Big Island of Hawaii to experience stunning landscapes created by these volcanoes.

        Registration: Limited to Great Outdoors members

        Day Hike: Tue. Apr. 28th, 2026 at 9 am- Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

        Day Hike: Thu. Apr. 30th, 2026 at 9 am- Big Island Hawaii, local trail. Location TBA.

        Transportation & Lodging: Air, ground transportation, lodging, meals, fuel, and travel costs on the Big Island of Hawaii is the responsibility of each member. It is strongly recommended that members purchase travel insurance to insure their trip costs in the event of cancellation or interruption. 

        Fees: Day hikes are FREE.  There is a vehicle entrance fee of $30 to enter Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.  A valid national park pass waives the entrance fee. There may be parking and entrance fees charged at the trailhead of a local hiking trail on the Big Island.

        What to Bring: Day Pack with Ten Essentials. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and rain protection. Pack a lunch, snacks, and water.

        Important information

        Great Outdoors is not arranging air, ground transportation, or lodging for members on the Big Island of Hawaii. 

        Register- Please RSVP for a day hike so I know who is coming.

        I will email attendees with essential details such as trailhead location, parking, and hike mileage and elevation gain for each day hike up to two weeks before the event. 

        I am visiting the Big Island of Hawaii the week of 4/26 to 5/03/26 and inviting other Great Outdoors members to join me on day hikes on Tuesday 4/28 and Thursday 4/30/26.

        I am staying in Kailua-Kona, so if you are also visiting the Big Island of Hawaii during the last week of April 2026, reach out and let’s meet up.



        Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

        Climate- In late April, the climate on the Big Island of Hawaii is generally pleasant, with daytime temperatures averaging in the high 70’s to low 80’s F and evening temperatures dropping into the 60’s F.  This month marks the end of the rainy season, so you can expect fewer rain showers, although it’s still possible to experience some rain, especially at night.

        Questions?

        Email Michael at [email protected]

        Disclosure- I do not respond to emails immediately due to my non-traditional work schedule. I will respond to emails about this event on my days off.

        Yosemite National Park

        Curry Village Canvas Tents

        May 15-18, 2026

        Need we say more?

         Yes we will! 

        Spring in Yosemite can't be beat!

        We will be heading to Yosemite at the BEST time to visit this illustrious National Park!  The weather will be amazing with the waterfalls at their most dynamic! Our lodging for the 3-night outing will be in Camp Curry, in unheated canvas tents.

        These events get sold out to capacity each year!

        Do NOT hesitate to book as soon as possible as we expect this event to be SOLD OUT again!


        Yosemite is one of the most popular National Parks in the country and we in southern California are very fortunate to have it so close. If you have never seen it then this Great Outdoors trip is a good opportunity for you to be introduced to this special place.

        If you have been there one or more times, then you’ll understand why many have made a Yosemite visit an annual event.  The grandeur and majesty of the park are so enriching that Yosemite can be experienced and enjoyed again and again.  The natural beauty of the park has inspired many for the last 150 years, but perhaps none more effusive than John Muir, who said of Yosemite, “It is by far the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter.” Please join us in this temple of the great outdoors.

        Pictured above:  Richard, Mike and Claudia half way up to the top of upper Yosemite Falls, this photo is at the top of lower Yosemite Falls.

        The location of this trip will be Yosemite Valley.  Our accommodations are canvas tents in Camp Curry, a rustic but charming village near the east end of the valley.

        Arrival should be about 4:00 pm on Friday afternoon.

        For both Saturday and Sunday, there will be optional hikes each day to choose from - one will be strenuous, the other will be easy.  Or simply visit the galleries, stores, bike ride, museums and/or stroll in the valley floor!


        Pictured above:  We are hitting the Panorama Trail that will put us back to Yosemite Valley - 8 Miles.  Yippee!

        On Monday morning we must check out of the cabins by 11:00 am. 

        More details will be announced as we finalize registration.

        Canvas Tents:

        We have secured four canvas tents for our group.  

        Each tent has 3 single beds and a double.  We can max out at 5 people per tent.  We are hoping to get a couple or friends (with benefits or without benefits) to share the double bed.  This way we can max out each tent with 5 people so that we can get as many as possible to experience Yosemite for this excursion.

        If you want to be in the same tent with another member please note that on the registration.

        If you prefer sharing a double cot with someone please note that on the registration and who the person is so we match you with the correct person.

        If you have a LOUD snoring issue, you should consider not attending so that others will not be affected by the noise.  This is close sleeping quarters.




         Driving & Directions:

        While GO is not authorized to be directly involved in coordinating carpools, we highly recommend our members to consider carpooling!

        What else?

        Cooking facilities/campfire rings are not available in Curry Village. However, there are several dining options near our cabins.  




        Such as Pizza & Beer, Cafeteria (with Vegan options!) and of course burgers & fries too. A general store is also open for purchasing food items and other material goods. You may bring snack food and drinks, but all food and scented items must be stored in the bear-proof storage locker in front of the cabin. This includes all food, food related items, toiletries, sundries and ice chests. Bears have a strong sense of smell and are attracted to anything they think will lead them to human food. Remember not to store these items in your vehicle or  canvas tent . It is recommended to use sealed plastic containers for storing your food inside the bear boxes. This makes it easier to keep your food organized, and away from campground critters.

        And of course, there is the option of having some fine dining at the Awahnee!


        Showers, sinks and flush toilets are all available to participants.

        Be sure to remember a flashlight or headlamp to find your way around Camp Curry at night. In addition, a sleeping bag (recommended), an extra blanket or a honey bunny may help keep you warm at night.  Other things to bring:

        •Warm outer gear appropriate for snow and/or rain or Shorts and T-shirts for warm days

        •Layered under gear (long underwear, etc.)

        •Hat, gloves, scarf, etc.

        •Sunglasses, sun block (for your face), lip balm 

        •Sturdy hiking shoes 


        Weather: Average temperatures in May in the Yosemite Valley range from the low 50s (night time) to the low-mid 70s during the day. Conditions may vary between sun, clouds, rain, or snow. Be prepared for anything. Expect the unexpected!  

        The trip leader will inform you of the weather conditions a couple days before our arrival but you may also want to keep abreast of them by using the Yosemite National Park website. (Click here.)





        Price: 

        $225 for Great Outdoors members for the 4 days/3 nights event.  Come early on Friday to enjoy the park and/or stay late on Monday to enjoy the park!  We will check into our canvas tents at 4 PM on Friday.

        This is a members only event, thus an annual membership ($25) must be purchased prior to signing up for this event.

        If you have a LOUD snoring issue, you should consider not attending so that others will not be affected by the noise.  This is close sleeping quarters.

        Cancellations will be authorized up to 21 days prior to start day of event IF a replacement can be found; a $20 cancellation fee will be charged.

        Trip Leader: Lance Whitmier



        Lance states:  Yosemite mesmerized me the very first time I visited the Park in the 90's.  I always brag about the majestic beauty of Yosemite along with it's grandeur and power.  I claim that Yosemite is indeed "my Heaven on Earth" and I can't wait to share the experience with you!"  For those visiting Yosemite for the first time - be prepared to experience a bit of heaven and the surreal!

        Select your registration that conforms to the following definitions:

        • RV is a vehicle designed as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping, travel or season use. RVs may be motorized (motorhomes) or towable (travel trailers, folding camping trailers and truck campers).

        • Dos Picos County Park Trip Notes

          Dos Picos County Park is located in Ramona, California. Its name is Spanish for "two peaks," derived from the two prominent mountains nearby. The surrounding ranch land and steep rocky slopes help preserve its secluded atmosphere.

          This park is known for its magnificent Oak trees.  The landscape is a mixture of chaparral, open grassland, and oak woodland. Coyote, fox, possum, skunk, and raccoon are all seen in the park regularly.

          The city of Ramona is minutes away when driving.  You may purchase food and other supplies there.

          Maximum RV length is 40 feet.  All sites have E/W. Several sites will be dedicated as tent sites.  These sites can have three tents, max and two cars.  The water spigots at these sites are unique.  It is housed in a plastic box that sits below ground level.  

          Tent campers, all the sites are gravel.   Your tent will likely be pitched on gravel.  Please bring blow-up mattresses or cots to sleep on, so you are not sleeping on gravel.  Tents should also bring extension cords. 

          At each site there is room for an RV and tow vehicle, or two vehicles.  Extra vehicles can park in the overflow lot for a total of $9, which is paid by GOPS.  The overflow parking lot is NOT close.  It’s located on the opposite side of the campground from our sites, so car camping would NOT be a good choice, please bring a tent.

          Leashed dogs are welcome at $1/night/dog.  Campers will pay for their own dogs upon check-in at the campground. 

          Sites 63 & 69 are ADA sites.  If you have an ADA placard, please let the trip leader know.   

          We will have access to the indoor pavilion and its outdoor picnic area.  It is located in the middle of all our sites.  There is a massive fire pit. The use of that pavilion and its outdoor space was an additional cost that was figured into the cost of this campout.  Typical weather in this area in November is high 73, low 42.

          Cancellation policy: cancel for full refund minus a $10 fees on or before Nov 10th, 2024.
