SUMMARY:Devil's Gateway
DESCRIPTION:DETAILS:\n· Hike leader volunteer(s): Dave.\n· Meet: Pothole Trailhead in Angeles National Forest.\n· Distance: ~ 12\,5 Miles total (out and back style)\n· Elevation gain: ~ 1\, 745\n· Time: Approximately 6-7 hours hiking including a couple of 15 minute breaks.\n· Conditioning: You’ll need to be in generally good physical condition.\n· Dogs: Are but not recommended\n· Hiking Poles – recommended\n· Restrooms – Trailhead.\n· Adventure Pass –Yes. \n\nMeet at trailhead at 07:45 AM leave at 08:00 AM\n\nDescription: A sign marks the trailhead. Plenty of room to park with restroom. The first 2 miles is a road walk where you can enjoy views of the lake and surrounding mountains. After we pass a ranch the road stops and the trail begins. Trail is only 18 inches wide and marked with ribbons at water crossings. Take your time crossing Aqua Blanca creek. Sometimes we will be next to the creek and other times we will be 100 ft or more above. Important to remember the trail is only 18 inches wide. We’ll stop for lunch at Devil’s Gateway then return the way we came. \nHike Leader Notes: This is a beautiful hike but the trail is brushy and narrow\, therefore ticks could be a concern. Poison Oak is an issue I suggest you were pants. Bring plenty of water. On my pre-hike I brought 2 liters of water and 1 liter of electrolyte\, ran out on the road back. Suggest you leave spare shoes and dry socks in your car. A recovery drink would be a good idea. Saw a few deer and bear tracks on the hike. Sometimes the trail is hard to find. Please remember I have hiked this part of the trail many times. \nIMPORTANT NOTES: This is not a speed hike. We’ll need to be careful crossing the many streams and staying on the trail. Do your best to stay with the group for a friendly and safe outing. Any guest that you wish to invite should join the Community Hiking Club (CHC) to participate. As always\, people may slip and fall\, encounter poison oak\, snakes\, etc. on this hike.
