Big Sur Backpacking

One of my favorite trips on the face of this planet is backpacking the Pine Ridge Trail in the Ventana Wilderness. Located along the coast of central California this area is known for some of the most amazing and breathtaking views of the western shore. This trail allows the participants to decide how much they are willing to push themselves: if they want to stop early there are the campsites to do so. For the group that is a bit more ambitious there are some hot springs at the end. Once again, backpackers of all levels are welcome, no experience required.
