Ladyface Mountain rises to 2,031 feet above sea level and is visible for many miles. According to legend, the Chumash Indians, who used the mountain as a perch to view the entire Conejo Valley, gave it the name "Ladyface" because its topography seemed like a woman looking up to the heavens, perhaps awaiting the return of her lover. In the early 1900s, this icon of the Santa Monica Mountains Recreation Area became a popular stop for travelers who refreshed themselves in the natural spring that runs seasonally at the foot of the mountain. Ladyface also features a popular hiking trail and geocaching station, with the trailhead off Kanan Road about one mile south of the 101 freeway.
