One of the biggest hikes this spring in Santa Barbara. With the area getting more rain than both Seattle and Portland the rivers and creeks were full of pools. This is a moderate hike along the river and there plenty of places to stop and dip your feet to cool off. This has gorgeous views of the interiors of the Santa Ynez Mountains and even though the city is less than ten miles away it makes you feel as if you’re all alone in the middle of nowhere. #hiking #mountains #views
