Afoot & Afield, first published in 1986, quickly became San Diego’s go-to guide. It introduced us to the diversity and natural wonders of our county, from desert to mountain to shore. By the time of author Jerry Schad’s death in 2011, four editions had been published. Dog-eared and highlighted, the books graced car trunks and backpacks all over Southern California.

After a few years, however, even the best trail guides beg for revision and expansion. But if the guide was penned by Jerry Schad, who could fill his shoes? To the rescue came Scott Turner, this month’s speaker.

His new edition stays true to Schad’s legacy, while adding over 50 new walks, stunning photographs, and up-to-the-minute logistical details.

Join Scott Turner as he reintroduces us to our own backyard. At 282 hikes, walks, and meanders, there’s a fistful of treasure for each of us.
