SUMMARY:Eaton Saddle to Inspiration Pt and back\, summiting Mt Lowe (a loop)
DESCRIPTION:**** Rain falling at the Trailhead can cancel hike **** \n=================================================\n*** Yes the road is open all the way to Mt Wilson ***\n**Highway 2 is closed beyond Red Box**\nDISTANCE: ~ 7 miles total (REVERSE loop style hike) \nHIKING TIME: ~ 4 hours \nLOSS/ GAIN: ~ 1500′ loss/ 1500’gain \nRATING: Moderate + (Not for beginners. This is a reverse hike with most of the gain in the second half of the hike in a 1.5 mile section) \nDESCRIPTION: We will hike down from the Eaton Saddle Trailhead located on Mt Wilson Red Box road / Red Box Road on the old Mt Lowe Rd\, passing through a cool tunnel\, and good views of the San Gabriels\, maybe stopping by the old Alpine Tavern and eventually arriving at Inspiration Point. Here we can take a break/ snack and check out all the interesting viewing tubes.\nThen comes the fun part! We head back up the trail to join the Mt Lowe West trial\, a beautiful rocky single track. After a mile and a half…. and ~1200′ ! … we will summit Mt Lowe 5\,600′ to grab some more great views. After the peak\, it is a gentle downhill ~2 miles back on the East side of the mountain to the Mt Lowe Road and back to the trailhead. \nLeader’s Note: There are no bathrooms at the trailhead. There are some in the Red Box parking lot when you turn off Hwy 2 and on to Mt Wilson/ Red Box Road. \nCarpooling from Santa Clarita Valley: \nDIRECTIONS to Trailhead ( 34.23949\, -118.09337 ) from Santa Clarita (~41 miles). \nFrom Santa Clarita\, take the I-5 South to the 210 East. Exit the 210 at Hwy 2 Angeles Crest Hwy\, North\, into the mountains/ forest. Take Hwy 2 for ~14 miles\, all the way to Red Box Road junction that leads to Mt Wilson. Turn Right\, at a parking lot (you will immediately see the Native American Indian Cultural Center\, Haramonkngna on your right).\nContinue driving on the Mt Wilson/ Red Box Road ~ 2.3 miles. There will be a turn out on the right AND a parking lot on the left side.\nPark anywhere there is space. To be sure you are in the correct location\, look for a locked forest gate on the right\, with the number 2N50 on it. This is the Mt Lowe Campground Trail / Eaton Saddle trail head. \nMEET:\nAt the Eaton Saddle Trailhead ( 34.23949\, -118.09337 ) at 8:15AM to start down the trail by 8:30AM latest. \nBRING: Water (2 – 3 liters recommended)\, electrolytes if it is a hot day\, sunscreen\, hat\, lunch/ snacks\, good boots with tread\, and hiking poles (recommended) which can be helpful on the climb.

SUMMARY:TOM SLOAN SADDLE TRAIL LOOP
DESCRIPTION:BEFORE YOU WILL BE MOVED TO THE GOING LIST\, YOU WILL NEED TO UPDATE YOUR CDH PROFILE (The three questions must be answered with a “yes”) IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO \nWe will begin our trek on a fire road then continue above the shaded Bear canyon to the Tom Sloan Saddle. After a short break continue on the newly restored TS trail and then stop for snacks at the Mount Lowe Campground. This is where the Old Tavern was built back in 1895 by professor Lowe. A few of the ruins from the Tavern and the Mt. Lowe Railway system can be seen here. There are also displays of pictures and a bit of history of its existence from 1893 to 1938.After the obligatory group photo we will return back to our cars by ascending the Mt. Lowe fire road \nA BIT OF HISTORY: RESTORATION PROJECTThe original trail was built many\, many years ago by the U.S. Forest Service. it was used as a short cut to get from the Lowe campground to Millard and the Arroyo Seco.The Mount Lowe Road was then built which destroyed most of the trail and it wasn’t well maintained. After the Station Fire in 2009 it was permanently closed.The impressive trail restoration was made possible by Restoration Legacy Crew back in 2018. It took them many months of hard work and dedication to bring this trail back to life.The perfect positioning of the rock steps along the path can be appreciated as well as many other attributes that make this trail worth checking out. \nStats:Level- Strong Intermediate/NO BEGINNERS PLEASEDistance- 8 milesGain- 1400′ (approximate)Terrain- rocky fire road\, single track trailsRestrooms- not available at trailhead (there is one at the campground)Dogs- NOT ALLOWED ON THIS HIKEParking- dirt road at the trailheadA National Forest Pass is not required. \nI would like to be back to the cars by 2:00 PM \nWHAT TO BRING: A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.Lunch/snacks\, at least 3 liters of water\, Lug soles with good tread\, poles if you like/have them.Hand sanitizer & mask (optional) \nEARLIER MEET TIME LOCATION: 7:00AMhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Milmada+Dr\,+La+Ca%C3%B1ada+Flintridge\,+CA+91011/@34.2085854\,-118.2003645\,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c2e9fb97d40ee9:0xa72e02a9070ad690!8m2!3d34.208581!4d-118.1981705.From here we’ll caravan to the trailhead. \nEATON SADDLE TRAILHEAD DIRECTIONS:https://www.google.com/maps/place/Eaton+Saddle+Trailhead/@34.2393818\,-118.0955521\,648m/am=t/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c2e7edecba22af:0x4ebc9e7d4338d8d8!8m2!3d34.2393774!4d-118.0933634 \nPlease join us for lunch at the La Canada-Flintridge Town CenterThere is a variety of food places to eat.https://www.google.com/maps/place/990+Town+Center+Dr\,+La+Ca%C3%B1ada+Flintridge\,+CA+91011/@34.2048424\,-118.202024\,17z/data=!3m1!5s0x80c2e9fc288954a1:0x79962bab30c04ef6!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x80c2e9fc28e4164b:0x9f9115b9ea5a8d58!2sBlaze+Pizza!8m2!3d34.204838!4d-118.1998485!3m4!1s0x80c2e9fc28956f11:0x7598d16cf3b6ae96!8m2!3d34.2048937!4d-118.1998907 \nMy cell: 562 331 3793 \nCDH POLICY: Any member with two NO SHOWS on CDH events since will lose their membership with CDH.

Lowe fire road \nA BIT OF HISTORY: RESTORATION PROJECTThe original trail was built many many years ago by the U.S. Forest Service. it was used as a short cut to get from the Lowe campground to Millard and the Arroyo Seco.The Mount Lowe Road was then built which destroyed most of the trail and it wasn’t well maintained. After the Station Fire in 2009 it was permanently closed.The impressive trail restoration was made possible by Restoration Legacy Crew back in 2018. It took them many months of hard work and dedication to bring this trail back to life.The perfect positioning of the rock steps along the path can be appreciated as well as many other attributes that make this trail worth checking out. \nStats:Level- Strong Intermediate/NO BEGINNERS PLEASEDistance- 8 milesGain- 1400′ (approximate)Terrain- rocky fire road single track trailsRestrooms- not available at trailhead (there is one at the campground)Dogs- NOT ALLOWED ON THIS HIKEParking- dirt road at the trailheadA National Forest Pass is not required. \nI would like to be back to the cars by 2:00 PM \nWHAT TO BRING: A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.Lunch/snacks at least 3 liters of water Lug soles with good tread poles if you like/have them.Hand sanitizer & mask (optional) \nEARLIER MEET TIME  7:00AMhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Milmada+Dr+La+Ca%C3%B1ada+Flintridge+CA+91011/@34.2085854-118.200364517z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c2e9fb97d40ee9:0xa72e02a9070ad690!8m2!3d34.208581!4d-118.1981705.From here we’ll caravan to the trailhead. \nEATON SADDLE TRAILHEAD DIRECTIONS:https://www.google.com/maps/place/Eaton+Saddle+Trailhead/@34.2393818-118.0955521648m/am=t/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c2e7edecba22af:0x4ebc9e7d4338d8d8!8m2!3d34.2393774!4d-118.0933634 \nPlease join us for lunch at the La Canada-Flintridge Town CenterThere is a variety of food places to eat.https://www.google.com/maps/place/990+Town+Center+Dr+La+Ca%C3%B1ada+Flintridge+CA+91011/@34.2048424-118.20202417z/data=!3m1!5s0x80c2e9fc288954a1:0x79962bab30c04ef6!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x80c2e9fc28e4164b:0x9f9115b9ea5a8d58!2sBlaze+Pizza!8m2!3d34.204838!4d-118.1998485!3m4!1s0x80c2e9fc28956f11:0x7598d16cf3b6ae96!8m2!3d34.2048937!4d-118.1998907 \nMy cell: 562 331 3793 \nCDH POLICY: Any member with two NO SHOWS on CDH events since will lose their membership with CDH.

We will begin our trek at Eaton Saddle trailhead\, walking along the Mt. Lowe Road and re-group at Markham Saddle. Then continue on the road above Bear canyon to Tom Sloan Saddle and take a short break at the junction. Our journey will continue with a gradual ascent on the TSS. On this trail we can appreciate the beautiful restoration made possible by Restoration Legacy Crew in 2018. We’ll take a connector trail and pass through some historic ruins including the Alpine Tavern. After checking out the sites contine our trek to Inspiration Point and Muir Pk. After summit pics\, we will retrace our steps to IP for a lunch break under the nice shaded veranda. On a clear day Catalina Island can be seen. The return back to our cars will be a gradual incline on a fire road. \nLast time I was here\, there were small patches of poison oak along the Bear canyon trail but can easily be avoided since it is not directly on the trail. \nStats:Level- Strong Intermediate/NO BEGINNERSDistance- 10 milesGain- 1500′ (approximate)Terrain- rocky fire road\, single track trailsRestrooms- not available at trailheadDogs- NOT ALLOWED ON THIS HIKEParking- dirt road at the trailheadA National Forest Pass is required. \nWHAT TO BRING: A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.Lunch/snacks\, at least 3 liters of water\, Lug soles with good tread\, poles if you like/have them.
