Year-round recreation

One of the great things about the Central Coast is its weather. Even when the temperature dips or storms wreak havoc with heavy rains and strong winds, locals know there’s sunshine and warmth on the way. It makes for a full year of outdoor activities, including hunting, hiking, drinking wine (yes, that’s an outdoor activity), and more.

In this winter/spring issue, we talk about boars in north SLO County—the damage they do and the people who hunt them. We also head out to Joshua Tree National Park, Carrizo Plain National Monument, Big Sur, and Orcutt. You can read about adventuring through wine country, where to feel that hiking burn, how to make doughnuts, and the outdoor phone apps that could work for you. This issue is full of the things our staff enjoys to do, and we hope you find that you love them too!
