Santa Ysabel Preserve East
Cappie’s Scoop: We celebrated our 50th Meetup hike of 2018 at this preserve! All I can say, there were a lot of cows near the trail. Mom thought my poop was big and I told her, look at that cow poop! We did a loop and afterwards celebrated with lunch and drinks. Mom had some cider from Julian Hard Cider, 4470 Julian Rd, Julian, CA 92036 and I had water. We ordered food from the Mexican food spot next door. They gave us a stick with a number and we sat in the hard cider place which is dog friendly! They brought us our food because the area outside of the Mexican food place is not dog friendly. To celebrate all of hikes in 2018, we had giveaways and raffles! Don’t hesitate to add YOUR scoop in the comments below!
Tips: Keep your eyes open for roaming cows on the trail and cow pies.
