Mission Trails

[Bob Spenger]

The missions of Alta California (strung along El Camino Real) are spaced
about right for daily bicycle travel and the route was done (north to
south) and reported on a year or so ago. Walking is tougher, especially
the southern half since it goes right through the heaviest part of the
metropolitan area of SoCal. I have tried to envision a route in my
area's section, San Juan Capistrano to San Gabriel, but it is quite
murky. The bicyclist wnho did it took a long detour by way of the beach
cities.
