Gabrielino Trail Out and Back ~ Sudden Hike
2020-11-29 08:30 - 14:00 | Gould Mesa trailhead, 5830 CA-2, La Cañada Flintridge, CA, 91011, US
YOU MUST MAINTAIN A DISTANCE OF SIX FEET FROM OTHERS
DO NOT APPROACH ANYONE WITHOUT YOUR FACE COVERING
***YOU MUST BRING A FACE COVERING to meet up at the trailhead and to use on trail when it is not possible to avoid close proximity to other hikers. Please be mindful of other people’s space. Once again – DO NOT APPROACH ANYONE WITHOUT YOUR FACE COVERING!!!
***Hike is waitlisted. For the time being, you must have hiked with us previously. Put yourself on the list and I will add you if I feel you can complete the hike at the group’s pace safely. Also, strict limit of the total number of attendees so please change your RSVP as soon as you know you cannot make it. No crashing.
**************************We haven’t done this exact route before so stats are a guess. We’ll hike until we find a good spot to stop for a snack/lunch break.
STATS
Distance: 11-12 miles
Dual Rating: 6/10
Elevation gain: >2000 feet
The Trail: Canyon trail out and back
The Plan:
We will meet where Gould Mesa road meets the Crest Highway. The plan is to hike up the canyon five to six miles, take a break, then head back the way we came. The last time we were here, the canyon was nicely shaded with big beautiful trees and a little bit of water in the creek.
Ken Burton trail. Large swaths of the trail were destroyed by the 2009 Station Fire and subsequent El Niño storms. Sections that survived had suffered years of erosion and lack of use or maintenance. It was virtually impassable due to hundreds of downed trees, rock slides, heavy sloughing and failed support structures. In the years shortly after the fire, a few people who ignored the closure order ended up lost and needing rescue.
Directions:
From the 210 Freeway take exit 20, Angeles Crest Hwy (CA-2) towards the mountains. In about 2 miles and shortly past Bay Tree Rd (on the left) you will see parking on the right. Free parking is here.
****************************************************
The Fine Print
PLEASE – Know your limits and abilities. Bring snacks and drink plenty of liquids when hiking. Check weather conditions and dress accordingly and be aware of your surroundings at all times. Watching out for poison oak, snakes, ticks, uneven footing, spectacular views, beautiful fauna all while interacting with awesome (usually) fellow hikers can be extremely hazardous, rewarding and fun.
The Farzan Rule: Posted hike times are the time the hike starts or we leave from a posted shuttle location. I’m aware other Meetup groups offer a grace period for late arrivals; we don’t. It’s your responsibility to know the location of the meeting spot and be there and ready to participate at the posted time. If you have any concerns about the directions feel free to contact the organizer of the event, preferably in advance of the event and not at the start time. I’m of the opinion that it’s not fair to delay an event when the majority of attendees have arrived on-time. (so named after a conversation I had with a certain un-named member)
RSVP’s: If you RSVP for an event be responsible and update your RSVP if your plans change. If your plans change at the last second and you’re not able to update your RSVP also let us know. In my opinion a no-show is someone who has no regard for following the guidelines we request from our members and will risk being removed from future events that have a limit.
****************************************************
VHC HIKE RATING SCALE
Rating a hike is subjective, meaning the difficulty of a hike will be in direct relation to how often you hike and the type of hike you prefer. Keep in mind that any hike can have the following: un-even hiking surfaces, various obstructions, water and/or water crossings or bouldering and/or rock hopping. A great hike will have all of these!
1 – A long walk
2 – 4 mile hike w/little elevation gain
3 – 5 mile hike w/up to1000 ft. elevation gain
4 – 5+ mile hike w/up to1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increases at times)
5 – 7+ mile hike w/over 1500 ft. elevation gain (heart rate increasing even more at times)
6 – 7+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be trying to remember how to perform CPR)
7 – 5+ mile hike w/over 2000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be muttering expletives to yourself)
8 – 10+ mile hike w/over 3500 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be angry with the hike leader)
9 – 10+ mile hike w/over 5000 ft. elevation gain (at times you might be thinking of reporting the hike leader to the authorities)
10 – Use your imagination
Class 3 Scrambling: Scrambling or un-roped climbing. You must use your hands at times to hold the terrain or find your route. This may be caused by a combination of boulders, steepness and extreme terrain. Some Class 3 routes have ropes in place for assistance.

Another HWD Exclusive
On February 21, 2020 the MRCA announced that they acquired and opened a new 257-acre park in Browns Canyon in one of the most vibrant wildlife habitats in the southern Santa Susana Mountains. The stunning Hidden Creeks parkland—which had, as recently as last year, been proposed to be developed into a gated community of 188 luxury houses—is located at the confluence of Browns Creek and Mormon Creek. The property provides a key migration corridor and perennial water source to a full complement of large mammals including black bear, mountain lion, mule deer, bobcat, American badger, grey fox, long-tailed weasel, ring-tailed cat, and the endangered California Condor.
Nature won’t be the only thing we’ll experience. We may get a chance to meet Ferdinand, a bull that roams the area. There are lots of old artifacts to explore along the way, including old ranch houses, abandoned ranch vehicles, a dam and much more! So expect a lot of stops along the way. Hike will last longer than normal.
Shortly after the announcement all LA trails closed. None of the trails here have been established or published as of yet and the best access requires crossing private property. But during the trail closures Katja, Cristina and I explored the nooks and crannies of this new open space over many weekends. We also answered the philosophical question: “If a trail has never been opened, can it be closed?”
I’ll post some photos from the exploratories later…check back often
I do have carte blanch permission from the property owner for access and I can’t wait to show the group this new gem of open space and its myriad of trails. RSVP below to be part of the first Meetup group to hike these trails
HIKE IS 6-8 MILES WITH ABOUT 1,000 FT TOTAL ASCENT AND IS RATED MEDIUM. SEE THE HIKE RATING GUIDE
Directions:
Head toward the address given. You are going to park in a turnout on Brown’s Canyon Rd. The picture below shows an old for-sale sign post. You can park in turnout immediately before or immediately after that. We’ll meet in the driveway by that sign. See 2nd pic below. This is the entrance to the old Misty Hollow ranch, now owned by MRCA and part of their park system. See 3rd pic for parking and ranch overview.

Echo Mountain Via Sam Merrill Trail
2020-12-05 14:00 - 17:00 | Cobb Estate Hike, 3302 Lake Ave, Altadena, CA, 91001, US
Come join me at a popular location for hiking in Altadena,Cobb Estate, Echo Mountain trail is a very popular hike and if you come or have been there before you’ll know why! There are ruins from an old hotel and dance hall and the Mount Lowe Railway.We will begin on time at 2pm so I suggest arriving at 1:30pm for parking.
There are some spectacular views at the top and remnants of times gone by. If you have never been there before you will want to plan for some explore time up top. I will probably only stay up there for about 15 minutes and then head down, but like I said it is worth exploring around there (and find out why it is called Echo Mountain) so no need to come down with me. If you do stay up longer you definitely will need a light.
Distance: 5.4 miles (for details look up this trail on Alltrails.com)Elevation Gain: 1417 ftDifficulty: Intermediate due to steepness and pace no one will wait for you if you are slower than the group pace. If you know the way and are slower you can join us or just come on your own and start earlier.Dogs: NoRestrooms: NoWater Fountain: NoParking: Free street parking may need to walk a bit from your park spot so allow time for this (arrive at 1:30pm is suggested).Trail: Out and back, can be slick and slippery, poles suggested for those that need them due to this (there have been hiker deaths on this trail) and wear appropriate hiking or trail shoes.Sunset: 4:45 pm bring light just to be safe, we will probably be finishedWeather: rain, wind or extreme heat will cancel this hike, rain and mud can make the trail especially dangerous so if we get a lot of rain between now and then I may cancel.
Known Dangers: Rattlesnakes, slip-‘n-fall, poison oak, can all happen on this trail, additionally if it is a warm day, bring extra water due to no shade and the steep climb.This place attracts a lot of people so if you are trying to social distance don’t say I did not warn you. There will be some narrow spots and people may want to pass you going either way if you are slower you need to let the runners or faster people pass you out of politeness and put on your mask if it looks like they care.
Bring: snack and a light layer as it may be cool at the topFlashlight/headlamp when it’s darkSunscreen and hat or sunglasses recommended since this hike has little shadeLOTS of H20 I recommend about 2 liters more if you sweat a lot.
