figueroa mt road

Figuero Mtn Rd - Santa Ynez ? :foo: I don't recognize this section ! I stopped riding Fig Mt last year - The road became SO crappy from the rainstorm damage, that it was a nightmare of broken roadway, potholes and loose sand/grit, going back down !!! This looks recently paved ? On lower flat section coming in from Los Olivos ? Doesn't look like Happy Cyn... I hiked Grass Mtn about 2 months ago, and there was some 'patch repair' on the approach, but not a tarmac carpet like this !!!
Is there another Figueroa Mtn in Ca. ?

Yesterday's ride, included my favorite local 3200' climb:

The road's down there I swear...

You can kinda see the road ahead on one of the ridges, the bottom of the climb is in the far canyon:

A single Hollyhock on a remote stretch of Hwy 25. Can’t imagine how it got there. They are not native to this area.

All roads lead to the sea…

Somewhere on the north coast of Sicily, a few km west of Aquidolce:
