Weir Canyon Rg. Pk., Cooks, Ortega, The Lookout

[alanmcorcoran]

After 13 years of living with a mile of it, I finally tracked down the entrance to Weir Canyon Regional Park. Took the Geezer over there and did a 4 mile loop (hike) this morning. Then after i got back, we two-upped it to Cook's Corner for lunch, decided to make a longer run and did live oak, trabuco canyon, down Antonio to Ortega Highway and out to the Lookout. Out an backed it, so this was my first time two upping Ortega, and also first time doing it in the East to West direction. Last time I was on it I was either with Moedad or OC Hoosier and I was kind of tentative and a little pokey in the twisties. This time a lot smoother and faster (no brakes, throttle all the time, 60/40 weighting, etc.) About 110 miles today altogether.
