Stories Carved in Stone

Join OC Park and LCF Volunteers on this moderate 3-mile program with 300-foot elevation gain over uneven, steep and rocky terrain. Step back 25 million years in Orange County’s history to a time when the seas receded, and the San Andreas Fault was just starting to form. Discover the geologic processes going on today and how they affect the natural landscape!
