We at Gossamer always love to toot our Trail Ambassador's horns, and T.A. Diane Soini has written a great book about hiking in Santa Barbara, California. The book contains 23 of Santa Barbara's favorite hikes. Here is a brief description of the book- "these hikes will lead you to creeks, waterfalls, hot springs, sandstone rock formations, peaks and amazing views. After taking these hikes, you'll know why Santa Barbara has some of the best hiking anywhere and lots of it!"
