| Top of Malibu via Schueren Road/Backbone Trail July 20, 2008 An easy hike up to one of Santa Monica mountains highest peaks, known only to locals and regulars |
| The Trail | |||||
 Nice view of the vertical rocks on Calabasas Peak and the trail up from Stunt Road. Climbed that in May. |
 Unique rock formations galore |
 Silhouetted hikers. |
 Head shaped rock. |
 The eye |
 The big rock - big version. This rock is so huge, I couldn't find anyplace where I could get it all in the picture. It's as tall as a 4 or 5 story building. Maybe from the air? |
 Northeast to Calabasas |
 Northeast to Calabasas. Calabasas Peak in distance. |

 Looking back to where I took the previous vertical pic |
 Looking up. |
 This mountain has tons of interesting rocks to climb on |
 One of my better cairns. |
 Did I mention the giant FAA station at the summit? I tried to shield you from it, but oh well..it's there. |
 Looking northwest to the highest peak in S. Malibu (at left) above Latigo Canyon Road. |
 Northeast towards Agoura Hills. |
 Top of Malibu panorama - small version. This is about a 270 degree view. |
 Top of Malibu panorama - big version. Tall buildings distant left are Warner Center to Santa Monica and the Bay in center, then on around to central Malibu. |
 Fog rolls in over Santa Monica bay up to Palisades Highlands. |
