View of our route, looking west over Potrero Ridge in Dos Vientos, with Camarillo in the distance

The gate to the parking area was locked when we arrived about 8:15, so we parked across the street.

 |
Starting up the Potrero Ridge Trail from the Reino trailhead
|
|
 |
On the Potrero Ridge Trail, Boney Mountain is in the distance
|
|
 |
Boney Mtn really isn't very far away!
|
|
 |
There are bush sunflowers everywhere!

We took the Sumac Trail on the way out and came back on the Sierra Vista Trail
|
|
|
|
 |
There were a few California poppies along the trail here
|
|
 |
Unlike the poppies, there were morning glories all over
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
We could see the Channel Islands from here. If we'd come around the other way, we wouldn't have noticed them behind us
|
|
|
|
 |
We get a good view of Boney Mtn from the Sierra Vista Trail
|
|
 |
There's a bee hive in the underground concrete box behind the green mesh box
|
|
 |
See the bees?
|
|
|
 |
More trailside flowers. These ones are very faintly colored
|
|
 |
Bush sunflowers again

On the switchbacks that bring us back to the start
