EISPIRATEN

I have a question for those who have been to North Etiwanda Preserve in Rancho Cucamonga: What are those switchbacks in this photo looking NE from the NEP trailhead up towards San Sevaine? Ellwood, I saw you did a hike in that area recently, can you tell me?

Thanks in advance - hope to see some of you up there sometime soon.

don't do it, it's a trap!

as we were hiking up Etiwanda ridge, we saw those switchbacks on the next ridge to the east. looks pretty clear for a trail, right?

except its not a trail, its an old fire road bed, which actually is totally grown over. and it eventually wraps around the north, where it disappears for a while.

not that its an awesome option, but just stick to Etiwanda ridge.

Thanks, Ze - I had seen that post before, but I didn't make the connection. No worries, I won't attempt it. Yet.
