SUMMARY:Guided Hike: Marks Ranch Wildflowers (2mi) | April 28
DESCRIPTION:Nothing quite sums up springtime in the Salinas Valley like a walk through vast fields of wildflowers. This guided hike at Marks Ranch will surely delight you with rolling green pastures and endless lupines! \nThis hike spotlights Marks Ranch and the Toro County Park backcountry\, especially the Robert V. and Patricia M. Brown Overlook Trail offering sweeping vistas of the Salinas Valley. On a clear day you can see the Gabilan mountain range\, the city of Salinas\, and even out to Monterey Bay. Hike leaders will touch on themes including the Marks family\, the ranch’s history and conservation story\, recovery after the 2020 Dolan Fire\, and the many plants and animals found along the way. \nHalf-day guided hikes will be held Friday\, April 14 (9am-1pm) and Friday\, April 28 (9am-12pm). The 2-mile option is considered easy and is mostly flat\, while the 3.4-mile (or ~5K) option is considered moderate with a total elevation gain/loss of approximately 550ft over two hills. Hikers will be expected to carry their own water and snacks\, and to pack a picnic lunch. A portalet is located near the Barn and Egg Pond\, about 1 mile from the front gate. Participants will park at the Marks Ranch gate and hike in together.

SUMMARY:Guided Hike: Mitteldorf Preserve to Joshua Creek (10.5mi) | April 23
DESCRIPTION:Whether you have hiked this region a hundred times or whether you are new to the area\, this guided “adventure hike” is one you won’t want to miss! This all-day hike loops through several conserved lands along the Central Coast: Santa Lucia Preserve\, Mitteldorf Preserve\, Patriarch Ridge\, Joshua Creek Canyon Ecological Reserve\, and Palo Corona Regional Park. Access to the backcountry of Palo Corona Regional Park and Joshua Creek Canyon Ecological Reserve is not offered to self-guided hikers through Big Sur Land Trust’s hiking program\, so this is a unique opportunity to explore the mosaic of conserved lands in this area. This magical trek will highlight the importance of individuals and groups working together to conserve and care for the lands they love. \nThis is a full-day guided hike taking place on April 23 and on April 29. With travel time\, this event will last from roughly 8am-5pm each day. Total elevation gain (ascent): Approximately 2\,600ft. Three hills\, including one long\, steep hill climbing 1\,500ft. Given the strenuous nature of this hike\, the varied terrain you will encounter\, and the possibility for extremes in temperature\, we ask you to carefully consider your personal health and fitness level before signing up for this guided opportunity. An elevational profile diagram will be coming soon to show how hilly this hike will be. Hikers will be expected to carry their own water and snacks\, and to pack a lunch. No restrooms are available in the backcountry\, so please plan accordingly and bring necessary supplies to leave no trace. Shuttle and carpool logistics will be confirmed. \nLearn more and register >>
