We were extremely happy to help out such a worthwhile organization. The brochures offer extensive information on six trails, all accessible from within Simi Valley. Each brochure includes a map. Brochures are available for the Mount McCoy, Stagecoach, Chumash, Rocky Peak, Canyon View and Hummingbird Creek trails. Each brochure is printed on brightly colored paper and folds up to pocket size.
Information includes the length of the trail and a synopsis of the area to be covered.
This is followed by a detailed history or geology of the trail and the area to be hiked. Two sections cover the plant life and wildlife a hiker might expect to see. On the back of the brochure is a small map with convenient trail, highway and street markings. At that point, a bench awaits the tired climber. The geology section explains the trail begins at the northeastern edge of the Chatsworth Formation, a name geologists have given the massive sandstone formations of the Cretaceous Period, or greater than 65.8 million years.
