Dear Friends of the Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy:

HAPPY NEW YEAR! What better way to start off the new year than with guided hikes on our newly acquired historic Rubio Canyon parcel. Please join us for one or more of the following hikes. RSVPS ARE REQUIRED. SPACE IS LIMITED.

Saturday, January 16th: Hike the historic trails of Rubio Canyon with guide/interpreter Paul Ayres. See our new acquisition up close and personal with commentary by one of the foothills' leading trail experts.

Saturday, January 23th: Hike through AFC's Rubio Canyon parcel to the waterfalls with guide/interpreter Paul Ayres. Paul will point out important highlights of the parcel on the way to and from the Rubio Canyon waterfalls.

Saturday, February 13th (President's Day Weekend): Hike AFC's Rubio Canyon parcel with Altadena writer/historian Michele Zack. Learn about the history of the Mt. Lowe Railway and related cultural facts to understand why AFC's acquisition of this parcel is so vital to preserving Altadena's heritage.
