It’s Valentines Day season… are you ready to fall in love with Escondido Falls?!?! Join us on Saturday for a fairly chill hike through Malibu with some river crossings and a three-tier waterfall at the end! With all the rain lately, it’ll probably be falling HARD - just like you on your crush (omg). We’ll enjoy lunch and vibes after hiking, and maybe stop at the beach on the way back to campus :)
