Following Ridge Trail 3.2 miles,
you'll quickly get to a height offering a bird's eye view of
the coast and hills of Montana de Oro.
There's around a 1,000 foot gain
in elevation, and most of that is in the first 3/4 of a mile
or so. Once you get to the top, it flattens out and you can
enjoy some really spectacular views.
The hills are steep in this area.
You can look out over the hills and almost straight down in
some areas.
