Giddyup! Join these two cow rasslin’, hootin, bootin, and hollerin guides on a Malibu day trip! No experience is necessary - recommended for beginners / those wanting a chill Sunday vibe. We’ll hike to the peak of Saddle Canyon, then we’ll head down to the beach to eat some chow, paint some watercolors, and enjoy the scenery. Feel free to bring a swimsuit if you’d like to fully enjoy what the big open pacific blue has to offer. Guides will be wearing country garb - themed dress optional but encouraged.
