Our next hike will be on 2-20-26 along the Panorama Trail west of Cuesta Grade.  It falls into the Soft category on the Bik hardness scale.  The hike will be 3.6 miles, elevation change 800 feet, Time 2:43.  The track is shown directly below and starts at the bottom of Cuesta Grade at the Old Stagecoach Road trailhead.  We will meet at the trailhead at 8:30 AM.

​

The views on Panorama are very good and we get to pass through a train tunnel as we pass under the famous hairpin loop.  The track of this hike is shown directly below.

The picture on the bottom shows the trailhead parking for Old Stage Coach Road at the bottom of Cuesta Grade.  There is a sign pointing to Old State Coach Road on Hwy 101.  You can exit going either North or South.  Note that it is across the freeway from a building labeled 7SM.  Be careful when crossing Hwy 101 because there are a few drivers left (like Russ) with manual transmission cars which simply put them in neutral for going down Cuesta Grade reduce engine wear.
