Fernandez Trail Survey - 04-09-2022 - by Erin Carroll

Link:	Fernandez Trail
Date:	04-09-2022
Surveyor Name:	Erin Carroll
Trail description:	Very cool trail in a pretty remote area, and one of the few non-motorized trails in this area. The trail just needs some brushing work (mostly Chamise) and some poison oak removal.  The poison oak was encroaching the trail in one section so much that it was unavoidable.  I washed off my legs and arms afterwards and I was fine.
Mode of transport:	Bicycle
Trail condition:	Needs some work

Mode of transport:	Bicycle
Trail condition:	Good shape and easy to follow

Fernandez Trail Survey - 01-13-2018 - by JPB

Link:	Fernandez Trail
Date:	01-13-2018
Surveyor Name:	JPB
Trail description:	After trailwork with teammates from Central Coast Concerned Mountain Bikers in December, returned with horseback friends to enjoy the route from Fernandez Road to Friis Camp. More brushing is needed (we ran out of time), but the trail is easy to follow, relatively gentle climb to saddleback with a resting bench before the relatively gentle long drop into Friis Camp. No water, no restrooms. Plan accordingly.
Mode of transport:	Array
Trail condition:	Needs some work
Condition details:	Nice meandering hike with recent brushing. More work slated.
