An Adventure in Trabuco Canyon – Part III & Butterflies Too

I wrote an earlier post about my adventure in Trabuco Canyon last weekend. If you are planning an off road adventure in Trabuco Canyon, be sure to obtain a day pass.  Be sure to obtain a pass and display it in your vehicle. For information contact (909) 736-1811. The fee is $5 you can obtain a day pass at Trabuco Canyon General Store (714) 858-1711. Trabuco Canyon is located in eastern Orange County and in the Cleveland National Forest.

In my first post, I shared photos of the Trabuco Creek and waterfalls.

This will be my last post of the series regarding Trabuco Canyon. Trabuco Canyon is a tremendous wildlife area that offers an opportuity for fun and entertainment, and great photo opportunites.

The road is canopied with foliage and trees in Trabuco Canyon and is incredibly green as a result of all of the rain.
