The openspace web page stated that the preserves are open 30 minutes before sunrise. I got t0 the Sierra Azulejo Parking Lot, on the corner of Mt Umunhum Rd and Hicks Rd at 5:40am. However the gate to Mt Umunhum Rd including all parking lots are ocked until 7am.
Trail is easy to moderate with a gradual incline. At 7am is was already warm. Most of the trial is covered with trees. Great view of the South Bay most of the way up. Only a few bikers towards the end of my hike.
Love the hike. One way was 1 hr  and 20 minutes!
