A Great Hike in the LA Area.!

  Miss Rocky is
Your Hiking Hostess :)
If you're looking for some extra exercise in the Great Outdoors...try Eaton Canyon in Pasadena!

I never advise people to hike alone but if you are lacking a partner...this is the place to go! There were a LOT of people on the trail (on a Tuesday?) today but you will have it to yourself at times. Solitude will not be yours here...but the people are friendly and the dogs I met along the way were nice too!

3.75 miles round trip/ Approx. 2 hours/ Sunscreen and WATER a must!

There are boulders to climb to get up to the BIG waterfall so though it is a fairly easy hike- those who have leg or back issues may have problems scaling the boulders and such. Also, you have to cross the Little River (stream) about 6 times. That means either wading through it or crossing on top of logs and rocks.FYI- I fell in but it was refreshing (refreshing = f-ing COLD)!

Ricky, I did hike there with my girl scout troop at 300 plus pounds. great trip.  We had bad weather on the way out.  We hiked to the falls.
Good hike

Hey Miss Rocky,
I just did this hike 2 weekends ago with my special ed class.  It was absolutely goregous.  I never hiked before, but was able to do it just fine.  I did fall once, climbing a big rock but only scratched my arm, no biggie.  I make it to the bridge then we rested for about 5 mins. then headed to the falls where we had lunch. Beautiful!!! I would definately recommend this hike. 
I don't think I would have made it to the falls at 300 lbs though!  You go girl!          Hugs to all,  Donna

I see from another thread you posted that you might be attending this month's LB Coffee. I would love to chat w/you about hiking if you are there--it's something I'd like to do but I don't really know where to go.

Anyway, hope to meet ya at an LB Coffee in the near future!

Wow, that looks like a LOT of fun! If you like mixed kinds of hikes you may want to try Roscomere Canyon up in the Encino/BelAire hills.. it's awesome and I think it's still pretty much off of the map.
