Vasquez Rocks in Aqua Dulce

This is a video of my visit to Vasquez Rocks with a 4K Drone. I came back to Vasquez Rocks where Kirk fought that Gorn thing or whatever. It’s the episode called Arena.  I have always been fascinated with this place because I saw it on Star Trek when I was a kid.  Kirk climbs this big rock with a sharp incline.  He rolls a boulder over the edge.  I remember wanting to go there to see this rock feature. 

I flew around the main featured rock.  Studios are always filming here.  My previous visit, a movie was being shot,  So they will ask folks to visit surrounding area.  Vasquez Rocks is 932 acres, so really no problem. 

Our geology class plan a field trip to examine the sediment and layered rocks uplifted by the San Andreas Faultline.  The Pacific Crest Trail crosses thru the park.

Always bring plenty of water when hiking
