Anacapa Island kayak trip part 2

July 15, 2010 Leave a Comment

 Saturday August 21st. Join us on this exquisite journey.     We will travel across the channel in our own charted boat .  The sea life is thriving on this journey across the channel and we may even see some of the 28 species of whales and dolphins.   Once we arrive at the island we will start kayaking where we left off on our last trip.  We will be heading south, concentrating on some of the largest caves the island has to offer.  We will then kayak through the famous arch and visit the Northern Fur Seal rookery on the back side of the island.  Anacapa Island has the largest Brown Pelican Rookery in the United States which we will also visit.

 We are  excited about working with Blue Ocean Kayaks on making this one of  our best trips ever. Please visit Blue Ocean’s web sit  www.blueoceankayaking.com and check out the details of the price, view their new boat and sign up for this trip.  You will also need to reserve your spot with me in advance as space for this trip is limited. 

  Things you should bring;  A change of cloths for the trip back and cloths to kayak in, (wet suits work well if you have one).  Snacks for the kayaks as well as lunch.  This is a full day.  You will be able to keep food on the boat,  so a small cooler is OK.  Bring lots of water and if you bring a camera, wrap it in a water proof bag or zip lock bag or 2.  I recommend bike gloves for your hands, a good hat and sunscreen as well.  If you have questions please contact us at  robert@goojai.com or susan@goojai.com Roberts cell (805)798-2810 / Susan’s cell (805)701-0221.

Please join us on this beautiful hike. The elevation is 6,700  and offers magnificent views of the Cuyama Bad Lands on one side and the breath-taking Channel Islands on the other.

Our journey is approximately 6 miles round trip.  We will meet at Nordhoff H.S at 8am.  Plan on a full day.  Things you will need:  Lots of water, lunch-snacks, Please dress in  layers as it does heat up, hat and sunscreen.  Any questions please call or email robert  @ robert@goojai.com or susan@goojai.com.  805-798-2810.  Cost is $20 per person but is really pricless.

Secret Lady Bug Trail Hike

October 22, 2009 Leave a Comment

lady bugs2Saturday, November 14th.

We will begin our hike on the north face of Pine Mountain, just north of Ojai. The elevation is 6,400 ft. and it may be chilly at the start. We meander beneath the ancient pines overlooking the Cuyama Bad Lands. Then we find ourselves descending into the oak trees as the view widens out over the valley and canyons below us. Next we take a secret trail back into the pine trees to an abandoned camp site with a spring. Here we will witness the millions of lady bugs clustered on the ferns and trees.  A perfect spot to  enjoy the moment and take a lunch break. This is a very rare and special place. 

 Since poaching of lady bugs has become so widespread we ask that you keep the location a Secret.  Dress in layers, bring water, sack lunch, sunscreen, hat, camera, all the normal stuff. There is a drive of about 1 & 1/4 hours to the trail head.  If you choose to drive, you will need to gas up before.  The views are awesome on the drive, a perfect ” road trip“. We  meet at Nordhoff High parking lot in Ojai at 8:30am and carpool up. This is a dog and youth friendly hike but please remember with the drive and lunch this Hike will take about 5 + hours.

Price for this hike is $30 per person or $50 per couple.  Any questions contact Robert Evans at 805-798-2810.
