HIKE VOLCAN MOUNTAIN
April 13, 2019 @9:30AM
DESCRIPTION: Just north of the town of Julian, with its patchwork quilt of ranches, apple orchards, and oak woodlands, stands the smooth, rounded slopes of Vulcan Mountain. The mountain and its summit are the focal point of the Vulcan Mountain Open Space Preserve, which protects a portion of the Volcan Mountain Range. This small range occupies a space between the larger Laguna and Palomar Mountains in the long chain of ranges comprising the Peninsular Ranges.
