Briefly
about the general area:
But wait, there's more cool things to do in the Santa Rosa Mountains. Lion Creek flows through this neighborhood, and a pleasant place for whitewater paddling is Santa Margarita River. If you want a nice time in the great outdoors, just come on down
to Mission Trail.
There's some flowing water nearby, Jaybird Creek is a stream you can check out while you're here. There's so much to do here at Mission Trail that you need to camp here for a while, Cedar Grove Campground is a fine location for that. You'll need more than
a day to explore everything Mission Trail has to offer, you can camp at Rancho Corrido Campground, and a short spree to Sawyer Spring is always worthwhile. Crosley Saddle is a tremendous spot to spend some time at, and a trip to Tin Can Flat invigorates the spirit.
