Meadows Trail

I wanted to take on the "mentally sensitive," trail for a long time. Part of the trail travels along Meadows Trail, and the rest of it is called Sheep Run. But aside from feeling a little mentally sensitive, I would be adding part of Wood Canyon, and Car Wreck, for a 9.65 mile hike. The name of the trail was changed on alltrails from Mentally Sensitive , and is now called Meadows and Aswut Trail Loop. The trail begins at Moulton Meadows Park in the Alta Vista neighborhood of Laguna Beach, California. This park has grassy fields, a dog park, and restrooms. There is street parking all along Balboa Road, adjoining the park. Nobody knows for sure how the car wreck got there. Was it driven off a cliff on purpose or for a prank? Perhaps a storm washed it down the mountainside. Nobody seems to know for sure. There were so many wildflowers in bloom all along the way. This was a perfect springtime hike in Orange County in March.

Mathis Canyon, and Wood Canyon: A 6 mile Hike

I would be hiking down the West Ridge, then making a right on Mathis Canyon. I would then make a left down Coyote Run and explore Wood Canyon, before heading up a trail called Rock it.  This would be a 6 mile hike and great for conditioning.
