Description

A classic Los Padres historic trail. Davy brown is named after the namesake cabin foundation found along its lower reaches. This trail flows from oak trees to river canyons to fast grassy fields towards it end. There are a few steep sections and one or two traverses that have some exposure next to the creek, but overall a stellar ride along history of the Chumash and Spanish who came long before us.
