Rating *****
length 4.2 Mile - 3 hour 15 minutes (Round trip), Moderate.
Elevation 2700 - 3070 feet
Access S2 roadside at the gate.

This loop explores the wildlife area, it follows old dirt roads and goes cross country.

This is a GPS only loop.
Wildlife is very good in making hiking trails, so the route follows them whenever possible.

This route follows washes and old dirt roads, so occasionally it's a bush walk.
Roads get overgrown with Chamise, this sometimes makes the road almost invisible.

Note:
The area is closed from June 1st to August 31st.
A CDFW Lands Pass must be carried by each visitor, cost about $ 5 a day or about $25 for a year (2018).
More info: San Felipe Valley Wildlife Area
Some areas are closed to the public: Closed areas
The closed area on the map isn't very clear. This hike should stay within the allowed area, but that might not be the case.

How to get there:

Along the S2 mile 10, park roadside, don't block the gate.
