The Pineries Open Space trail was opened on 6/27/2020. It is an 8.7 mile loop from the parking lot with about 500’ of elevation gain. From the trail you can see some old growth Ponderosa Pine forest as well as burn areas from the fire of 2013. For more information, please see the following link: https://www.trailsandopenspaces.org/trails/pineries-open-space/
A resurrected Jeep trackable has been left in the container for FTF.
