Calling everyone for a day of adventure in Western Malibu! We will be starting off with a drive to [SECRET MYSTERY LOCATION] where we will eat lunch among other things. After that, it’s a short drive to the Grotto where we will spend some time hiking down into the canyon exploring. Later in the afternoon, after some rest and snacks, we’ll hike up Sandstone Peak and catch the sunset at 7:00 over the Pacific Ocean and Santa Monica Mountains. After returning down the mountain with flashlights we will end our day with a camp stove dinner on the beach under the stars. Consider this your chance to get all the benefits of an overnight trip with the added bonus of getting to sleep in your own bed! Win-win!
