Started! The 55 mile hike from the ocean in Del Mar to Vulcan Mountain in Julian at 9000 ft elevation has begun. Did the first link on the most gorgeous of days…two miles out and then two miles back to the car. Day two was equally as beautiful but took us by marsh lands and stables to the Polo Fields. It was only a 2.6 mile round trip. Now we encounter a 10 mile gap that has not been completed. So next time we will jump ahead to the Santa Fe Valley and Del Dios Gorge. Adventure at my back door!
