Itinerary description

Half Moon WMA - This area has many miles of multi-use and hiking trails. It is located off of Half Moon Ranch Rd. That road will end at the trailhead. I hiked from there onto the yellow loop and eventually connected onto to the blue trail. Continuing north into the preserve along some forest roads, I found the McKinney Homestead site. I didn't have enough battery to track the entire hike but from the homestead I hiked further north until I found Alto Cemetery.
