Climb
For the climbers, the ascent up Latigo Canyon Road is, perhaps, the most enjoyable in the region. The climb up Latigo Canyon is variable, with short periods of steep switchbacks, long low-grade sections and slight descents. The entire road is 10 miles long, but the first summit is ~6.5 miles from PCH, after which there is a descent and second climb to the interchange at Kanan Dume Rd. Altogether the climb is 2100 ft, but because the route is so twisted and variable it doesn’t have a very high suffer factor. You are constantly thinking about what is around the next corner instead of any ache on the legs.
