San Ysidro (Upper)

California > Central Coast > Santa Barbara

Description

A small, secluded cliff up the canyon from the popular Lower San Ysidro area.
Climbers should beware that much of the area is choked with poison oak.

Getting There

Hike up San Ysidro canyon for roughly 45 minutes, passing the lower area and staying right when the single track trail branches off from the dirt road.
Continue up the trail, passing some paved switchbacks and pipe handrailing. After a short distance, the cliff will be visible across the creek to the left.
