Rod Martinez: "My all time fav is Potrero John trail. It's all the way up in the Sespe, up and over the ridge past Rose Valley turnoff. Approximately mile-marker #30-ish or so on the 33. Great scenic trail with lots of varied scenery, all along a part-time stream. Whoe thing's pretty level and only 2.7 miles long, ending in a waterfall."
