Description and MapHard to believe that I have lived in the South Bay for almost 40 years and have never been to this park. I think that was because I had the notion that all of the east foothills, in which this park is located, was pretty much like what you good see from the valley, that is mostly open grasslands. However, the park is nestled in a canyon with only one side, the South Rim the more open grasslands that is seen from the valley. The other side, the South Rim is covered in Oak and Bayberry forests while the floor of the canyon is home to the Upper Penitencia Creek that has at least some flow of water year round (according to so far my one visit in Novemeber)
I just started exploring this park so look for more hikes soon. Links
