Laguna, Sky, Fire Lane trails - 4/6/02

Started out kinda aimless, just wanting to cover some ground we hadn't covered before, but unsure of the weather.

We opted for this loop, which turned out to be very pleasant, not too difficult, and absolutely overrun with wildflowers. The trails aren't on the USGS topo maps - I think they might date from the 1995 fire (cf "Fire Lane" trail). You park at the Youth Hostel off the Limantour Beach road, and then sneak through the side yard of the Environmental Education Center.
