About 125 miles south on the coastal highway CA-1 from San Simeon is Santa Barbara and our campsite in the Santa Ynez Mountains at Rancho Oso. Rancho Oso is a former guest ranch that was originally a Spanish land grant in the early 1800s. It is now a campground managed by 1000 Trails, our membership camping organization. It is located slightly east of Santa Barbara in the Santa Ynez Mountains in the Los Padres National Forest, the largest national forest in the country. It is smack dab in the center of the Santa Ynez wine region about 20 miles west of Solvang, a town modeled after a Danish town in Europe. We plan on visiting there on Sunday Day 46.
