W here redwoods meet the Pacific
Ocean, hike to a waterfall that
empties onto a sandy beach cove.
Under the canopy of Monterey
cypress trees, those twisting, wind-shaped ever-
greens will lead you to turquoise coastal waters
pounding against the rocks.
In ancient storied lands of the desert, walk
among thousands of palm trees in a true oasis
where streams flow through craggy, rocky
canyons.
California poppies, our state flower.
Right: hiking Ventura River. Preserve in Ojai.
