Here is an un-refined route path: https://caltopo.com/m/B6FE<br /><br />Also wondering if you have come across any good information about this area in your studies? Thanks!Crimpsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16980691461272521369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542026216266264692.post-16530545456649206102016-06-17T06:19:25.736-07:002016-06-17T06:19:25.736-07:00Aloha Eric.

Though my blog has been inactive for some time, all my posts remain on-line and I will endeavor to answer questions related to the Southern Los Padres NF. As for the inactivity, I have taken a year off from the forest to pursue other interests, however, I will be returning to form by the end of the year. More madness awaits. Thanks again.<br />-DS David Stillmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04883591383974327072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542026216266264692.post-3196956310424763522016-06-15T20:45:35.787-07:002016-06-15T20:45:35.787-07:00Thanks for the nod Eric.

It means a lot to be included in this list coming from someone with your mountain cred.<br /><br />In addition to your fine blog list, let me recommend the following:<br /><br />Jack Elliot's Santa Barbara Adventure (https://yankeebarbareno.com/)<br />Craig R. Carey (http://www.craigrcarey.net/)<br />Sweeping the Garden (https://sweepingthegarden.wordpress.com/)<br /><br />Each of these guys offers a unique take on the So Cal outdoor experience. Craig Carey wrote the Bible on SLPF back-country exploration (David Stillman wrote the unauthorized version).<br /><br />Jack Elliot is a wealth of historical information about the Santa Barbara back-country and a fine writer to boot.<br /><br />Craig Wisner offers a more cerebral interpretation of back-country exploration.<br /><br />I wish I was half the writer these guys were and had a quarter of the back-country knowledge they have. <br /><br />Regards,<br />Wild SouthlandMadison Christianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17476494056610217659noreply@blogger.com
