SUMMARY:Mt. Pinos Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Head to higher elevations and hopefully see some mountain birds (Mountain Chickadees\, Clark’s Nutcrackers\, White-headed Woodpecker\, Brown Creeper). Bring a day pack with food\, water and clothing layers; weather is unpredictable. \n \nNote: As of April 22nd\, the road to Mt. Pinos was open. A sign by the road said tire chains were required\, but this was not being enforced. Unless we get more snow before the date of this field trip\, the road should be clear of ice and snow. Check nordicbase.org or http://www.frazmtn.com/fmcoc/snowcond.htm for road conditions. \nLeader is Richard Armerding (call or text: 310-701-3878). \nWe will carpool from the Janss Park & Ride at 7 am. Janss Park & Ride is located on the east side of the 23 freeway at the Janss Road Exit by the soccer fields. \nAlternately\, meet at 9:00am at the Mt. Pinos Nordic Base parking lot at the end of Mount Pinos Road (GPS: Cuddy Valley Rd\, Forest Rte 9N24\, Frazier Park\, CA 93225 – or – coordinates 34.8134\, -119.1263). \nPlease note that each vehicle that parks at the Mt. Pinos Nordic Base parking lot will need to display a valid Adventure Pass. On a recent Saturday\, a ranger was ticketing cars without passes. An Adventure Pass may be purchased locally at Big 5 Sporting Goods. Or you can stop at the 7-11 in Castaic and purchase one.
