Just after the rainy season, California is back to its former Japanese style.
The right temperature, fresh air, a sense of spring. In my eyes, this is not only the most comfortable season of the year, but also a good time to get rid of small fat.
With such a good spring, many foodies and Hikers have agitated a heart to go hiking, leaving messages in the background, asking about our latest Hiking mountain climbing strategy.

Don't worry, this is not coming!
Niu Xiaohua recently realized that the meaning of life is not only about eating, but also about exercise!
So he raised his hand and wrote a mountain climbing guide.
To be honest, the original purpose of this guide was because I honestly suggested everyone to go to the mountain collectively on the weekend.
The mighty leader, this matter was put on the agenda the next day,
The members of the small team complained again and again, especially Aunt 16. After all, her longevity and explosive power only exist at night...

Los Angeles area
Xiaohua first came to tell you that the first six Los Angeles hiking guides are easy viewing soy sauce routes, suitable for novice mountaineering.
The last four are relatively professional classic Southern California climbing routes. Hikers with experience are recommended to try.
In fact, if each mountain is really written, Xiaohua said, "Every mountain can be written on a page."
I also encourage everyone to do more homework before Hiking and find the mountain that belongs to them!

San Diego
If you're in San Diego, choose to stroll through the scenic Torrey Pine or climb Mt Woodson to see the famous potato chip rock
(Note: It has been smashed by tourists, and you can't cheat on Weibo and WeChat ...).
However, there are actually more than 100 peaks around San Diego, and there are many climbing routes hidden in the rolling mountains.
If you are tired of crowding up with crowds or lining up to take photos by potato chips, then try these lesser-known mountaineering routes and local people know about new scenery!
1. The Goat Canyon Railroad Trestle
Key words:World's largest viaduct
Length: 4 ~ 6 Miles
Starting point: Google maps make people take a lot of detours, so the easiest way is to get off the 8th highway at Ocotillo, and then drive north 9.2 steps all the way, that is the starting point of Mortero Wash.
Anza-Borrego State Park has the world's largest wooden rail viaduct. The difficulty factor for climbing paths without signs or repairs is indeed relatively large, and even the expert Hiking experts will spend a whole day to complete it.
For such a challenging task, you must remember to bring navigation, whether it is GPS, compass, or map. Do not feel that you are the next explorer who can get out of the desert.
It is not surprising to encounter various creatures and climb huge pebbles as you pass the rugged mountain road. I pray that you do not meet the scorching sun or "desert savage"! Bring a lot of water, use scientific knowledge wisely, and carefully consider possible problems.
Once you see the longest wooden bridge in the world, you will find that all the effort is worth it.
2. Sea Caves at Cabrillo National Monument

Length: about 1 Mile
Where: 1800 Cabrillo Memorial Dr, San Diego, CA 92106
Hikers may have seen the tidal pools in the Cabrillo National Memorial (a place where the coastal terrain is low and filled with rocks and seawater. When these areas rise, seawater will flood into them, or they will be flooded without tidewater; At low tide, the tide water remaining between the rocks forms one closed pond after another), the mysterious beauty, but at the end of the national park is the beginning of the adventure.
Hidden in the tide pools are sea caves. These caves can only be accessed at low tide, otherwise there is the danger of being drowned by fierce waves. Therefore, grasping the time is the key.
