- Even California's lesser-known trails are amazing! On what I thought would be a quick day hike to test out a backpack (see link below) I stumbled upon a stunningly beautiful area in Auburn, CA. This area includes old mining ruins, caves, and a major rock climbing area next to a working quarry!

Any cool local trails near you? Shout 'em out!
What a cool place. Sometimes I think we get so caught up in what is around the next bend that we ignore the treasures around us. Thanks for taking us along my friend!
Yeah man, local treasures are great too. Thanks for watching!
Awesome hike Doug! Definitely some great places to explore, the shear cliffs of the quarry are amazing and I will definitely have to check it out. Thank You
Well worth it!
Great trail and video man, very enjoyable to watch 👌 all the best Chris 👍 🇬🇧
Thanks so much! It was unexpectedly great!
Very beautiful
Yeah man! I was blown away. :) Thanks for watching!!!
Nice trail and ty for sharing such famous bridge🙏
Such a cool area!
Beautiful hike!
Thanks! It was a great hike!
Amazing scenery on this trail. Phenomenal views! Caution is advised on those rocky inclines
I'm always careful. ;)
A few bits of interesting info... The Auburn dam project was scrapped due to a fault line underneath the proposed site. Many unfortunate souls have ended their lives by jumping off Foresthill Bridge. Just up river past clementine spillway on the left is a large limestone outcrop known as robbers roost... The Gasaway gang (whos leader was female) would sit and wait for the stage and signal with a mirror to their gangmembers it was time to ambush. The native legends about thumb rock are very interesting and very hard to find. However from what ive learned an ancient god in the form of a massive snake lived deep underground in what i believe to be massive caverns. I believe that treasure could also be hidden in this area and deep underground caves and tunnels connect thumb rock to the Tiechert quarry.
Very interesting! Thank you!
i used to hike to the top of that climbing area back in the day, it is a good work out.
For sure! Super steep!
Cool trail! I've been driving past the top end of that quarry for 40 years but never knew about this trail - right near the famous Training Hill. Definitely looks like a place to explore!
Me too! I was surprised when I popped out on the highway haha! Very cool area!
Doug, it was cool to see some footage from my back yard. Next time you're in the area, you should check out the Training Hill to Olmstead Loop area, nice, challenging hike up with a great pay off. Spectacular wild flowers in the spring.
Sounds great! Thanks! I've done Cardiac to Folsom too - even saw a bear! - great trail along the river. :)
I'll have to check this area out!
Excellent day hike!
Dang it, I wish I had known you were here, I would of went with you. The views are so pretty along the river.
Next time I'll let you know!
That hike has it all and its part of the western states 100 mile running and horse race.
Thsts awesome! I'll stick to walking slowly though haha. :)
I live near Auburn
