Basically, all trails with trailheads in the City of Sierra Madre have been closed due to the rains.
That includes the Mt. Wilson trail, the Chantry Flats Gate and Bailey Canyon

The trail race, which was still on track to take place this weekend, due to the efforts of many volunteers, has now been postponed.

An "early" fire - a late, heavy rainstorm. What a rotten combination...

Northeast Pasadena, adjacent to Sierra Madre, has received over 2" of rain since Thursday and it is currently raining pretty hard Friday night. Talked with one of the organizers of the Trail Run and it is postponed (obviously) and they are looking at maybe June 14th to re-schedule it.

As of 5/28, the Mt. Wilson trail (SierraMadre) was re-opened. There was no significant damage from the rains and the trail is in good shape. The Mt. Wilson trail race is re-scheduled for June 7.
Happy hiking!
