Ends in Altadena / Loma Alta Park at 2PM Sunday. Saturday - Runners will be crossing Hwy 2 at Inspiration Point, Islip, Vincent Gap. Cr...

Thanks for the scouting report on the trail. With the recent rains I was wondering how things held up.

Nice write up. The good conditions on the Idle Hour trail are probably due to the recent working of it by runners of the Angeles Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run. Trail work is a requiremnt to run the race. They hit that section every year going down into Idle Hour. They also hit the other end leading f...

Post I saw was from two weeks ago

While I haven't been up there in awhile my understasting is that it is flowing fine. Saw a report by a trail running group that it's flowing.

Haven't been to Oakwilde since the Station Fire. Would like to check it out. Thanks for the report and pics. -Happy Trails.

Spring is always flowing. Ice cold and delicious!

Thanks Grezer. A few months ago I looked up that address in an old phone book that I found at Pasadena's main library. Drove by and noticed it was up for sale. I did see the numerous citrus trees that you mentioned as well. If I recall from the obituary he was involved with some of the dam projects ...

Teejate!

Thank you for the links and ideas. Much appreciated.

Thanks folks. THis is helpful. I'll check out the REI tent and take a gander at Sierra Trading Post.

Jeff H- How's the ease of set up for the CampDome tent?

Much appreciated.

Hi All, Enjoy trail running and hiking. This spring/summer I'd like to do some car camping and I'm looking for a quality tent (simple, durable, and inexpensive.) Weight is not a concern to me. 1 or 2 person tent. Any suggestions on models or ideas on how to rig up a successful homemade one. Happy Tr...

Also had another interesting sighting that trip. And that would be a group of six or seven guys walking past my tent at 1:00 in the morning in the Mt. Williamson area, with no headlamps, on a use path, coming from a direction that only provided off trail access to the forest. First guy said "H...

Thanks for the heads up Walker.

:?: Thinking of taking a small group on a trail run to the end of the Brown Mt Road (where it ends and meets Ken Burton). I haven't been up there since before the Station Fire. We would start at Devils Gate and do an out and back. Anyone been all the way to the end of the Brown Mt Road and can tell ...

I cannot help but say, If you like your access to Angeles National Forrest, you can keep your access to Angeles National Forrest. Politicians rarely act without a political donor calling the shots. I don't see how more people can get access and not have more trash, graffiti and pressure on limited ...

Thanks Hiking Jim!

Thanks guys... this is all the info I need. Appreciate your recon.!


Oh--- Any idea about that water pipe on the Devore trail

Thanks Jim - No rush -Just planning.

Hi All, Hoping someone can give me some detail as to current conditions of the following trails? Planning a small group trail run in the area. Thinking about it at least. I haven't been in those trails since the S. Fire. -Gabrileno from Red Box to Devore Trail -Rincon Road from RB to Westfork (I ima...

"Shreddy, congrats on another fine attempt! I'm in awe of all who even start the race. Maybe someday..." Much appreciated Turtle. AC100 3 Shreddy 0 I want to finish this thing! The volunteers are amazing and this fine race tradition can't take place without them - https://www.youtube.com/e...

Great video Mike! It was good to meet you in person and shake your hand up at Newcombs Saddle. Once again I timed out at Idle Hour. The course is relentless! ITB issues and blisters were my downfall. I couldn't muster the mental strength to press on through the pain. Thanks for the support out there...

I am Mike! Bib #36. Hope to pop by and say hello. Thanks to all you volunteers!

Heads up on The Crest - This weekend the 27th Annual Angeles Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run takes place. Travel safe everyone. Race starts in Wrightwood Saturday August 2rd / 5AM. Ends in Altadena Sunday at 2PM. Runner's will be crossing the AC at Inspiration Point, Islip Saddle, Vincent Gap, Kratka R...

Thanks Tom. Now that I reflect back I recall a bullet-ridden TV and bullets whizzing by. Go outta there fast!

Was there one at Sulfur Springs back in the day? I remember being on a hike and hearing gunfire.

Thanks Walker. Crazy stuff.

Hi All,

Just curious - In my early 40s here and recall family trips up to Wilson to hike. I recall people jumping off from the parking lot. They landed at Victory Park Pasadena (I think).

Anyone else remember that? I wonder why they stopped? Safety? hahahaha!

Happy Trails!

Out of curiosity when should we expect the last of the PCT thru hikers in the San Gabes?

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I hit the hills for hiking and trail running during the day. Need to save some $$$$ and purchase some basic camping equipment. What a great way to end the day and then start a new one.
