Corriganville

I've been trying to find other areas to hike for when Fall gets here. I came upon some trails over in Simi Valley in Corriganville Regional Park. Corriganville once belonged to cowboy actor Ray "Crash" Corrigan. It was a "movie ranch" and many movies and TV shows were filmed there back in it's "hayday". Most of the movie sets are gone now but there are now many trails for weekend hikers.
Ben and I drove over there this morning to check out the area. There were a bunch of people there and a couple of "docents" dressed in cowboy garb. I guess they provide guided tours through some of the area.
Anyway, once the weather gets cooler and my brother comes up from Orange County for a weekend visit, he and I will go over there to try out some of the trails.

  1. Looks like fun, Kay... I hope you get to hike there soon. We are talking about doing some hiking on Monday now that it's cooler here.

    Hugs,
