Overview: Torrey Pines State Reserve is a state park within the city of San Diego, California just north of the neighborhood of La Jolla. The park is home to the rarest species of pine-the namesake Torrey Pine which only grows naturally within the park limits and on Santa Rosa Island in the Channel Islands National Park. The park offers multiple trails which range in difficulty and distance. Most of the park is on top of the bluffs some 700 feet or so above the beach.
I am currently a student at University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA), where I intend to get a degree in Political Science and Geography/Environmental Studies. When I'm not studying, you will find me in the mountains. I have been climbing since I was pretty little and have done climbs throughout California, Colorado and Arizona, including the highpoints of those states. I have done Mount Whitney and Mount Elbert, but I plan on doing some even higher mountains, maybe Aconcagua, Mount Mckinley or Kilimanjaro, Check back with me in about 10 years.
