Hike Through Pole Creek
Hike date: June 6, 2009–With our list out of the way, the boys decided to leave choosing the first hike up to me. I picked Pole Creek and the hills behind our house in Fillmore in Southern California. There’s an old road, so we heard, that starts at Pole Creek and goes back into the canyons, swings up the side of the mountain and comes out on Foothill drive. We also knew that the area has been closed to automobile traffic for quite some time because of an endangered frog.
Taking a Hike – Getting Ready
Norma and I live in Southern California in FillÂmore — gateÂway to the Sespe WilderÂness and CalÂiÂforÂnia ConÂdor SancÂtuÂary. The boys both live in VenÂtura. So, for this summer, it was a natural that we wanted to see what was in the canyon and hills around our house, and to practice our backpacking.
