Eagle Rock
Cappie’s Scoop: I once hiked another trail called Eagle Peak and the whole time, I’m looking around for an eagle. No eagle. This time I was surprised to see some huge rocks on the trail that looked like an eagle! Finally, a bird dog…
McGinty Mountain
Cappie’s Scoop: I like this hike because we usually have the trail all to ourselves. Except when the people in the big jackets, big hats and carrying lots of stuff are there. Mom says they are firefighters and this is the spot where they train….
Agua Dulce Loop
Cappie’s Scoop: I love a loop hike! You get to see something different around every turn. I remember this hike a lot because in the middle of hiking, I was jumping around with a pine cone and I managed to trip over something and hit…
Knott Grove
Cappie’s Scoop: Who doesn’t love Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve! The hoomans are hiking, riding bikes, and sitting on big dogs which mom says are horses. So be careful furiends and share the trail. This time we headed through Knott Grove all the way to…
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…
Garnet Peak

Devil’s Bridge
Cappie’s Scoop: I didn’t know what I was in for when we started to hike this trail. I should’ve known when mom said the “devil’s bridge” that it would be scary. We walked out onto the bridge and I looked at mom thinking we…
Boynton Canyon
Cappie’s Scoop: All I wanted to do was zooooooom on this trail! Maybe there really is an energy vortex out there like mom says. The trail through the canyon had some shade and lots of leaves to crunch. Then when we went to the…
Batiquitos Lagoon
Cappie’s Scoop: This might be a short hike but it’s tough for any dog like me who loves the water. The whole time we’re hiking, I can see the lagoon and birds, lots of birds in the water but I can’t get there. There’s a…
Corte Madera Mountain
Cappie’s Scoop: This is one of my favorite hikes! I’ve hiked it in the warm sun, the cold winter and even when it was raining. There is always something fun on this hike whether it’s finding tasty sticks, mud puddles, or patches of snow to…
