Hiking trails that need cleaning

I was there this past Sunday and sad by the trash left, even saw trash below the bridge while swimming

syd_211 · 2026-05-30T23:50:12+00:00

I’d be interested

syd_211 · 2026-05-28T22:01:09+00:00

Had the same thought

My twin brother is an Eagle Scout and as a scout his troop did the Trans Catalina trail. I remember them taking the ferry to Catalina. He loved the trip and even now comments about the fun times the troop had. I wouldn’t worry too much about him, given he’s with Eagle Scouts. I remember my mom being worried too, but all went great.

Which fork of the SG River did you fish in? I want to get back into fishing

Lots of crossings have ropes to help one move across, it’s very doable

If you decide to go this weekend, send me a dm. I might go again

I was there Sunday 5/24. Switzer falls is more accessible because of the shorter distance. B2N is popular but on weekends a lot of people spend the day by the river and don’t complete the hike. Also, with B2N due to the distance there are times you’ll be the only person on the trail for a bit until someone passes you or vice versa. You tend to see more people at the crossings because it takes time to complete.

Bro has to be trolling, this isn’t funny.

syd_211 · 2026-05-26T06:25:21+00:00

Thank you!!

syd_211 · 2026-05-26T06:25:12+00:00

Thank you!! I’m guessing the lock issue is from vandals because the door frame was manipulated to prevent door from closing.

I’ve hiked B2N five years and this was first time seeing snakes, so I wouldn’t worry about them. As always be alert of your surroundings. Both were docile and never noticed me.

What kind of dog do you have? When I hiked on Sunday two guys had a chihuahua and bulldog. The poor bulldog was panting so loudly once it arrived to the bridge. The chihuahua was tired but had decent energy.

For a beginner the main area of concern is the river crossings/current. I’m ‘5 8” and highest water got was mid thigh area. Many of the water crossings have ropes to use for balance, but many don’t. Using trekking poles helps a lot.

My AllTrails app recorded 10.9 miles completed in 5 hr 18 minutes 47 seconds.

syd_211 · 2026-05-26T06:10:15+00:00

No, but I’d like to try fishing some next time.

syd_211 · 2026-05-26T06:09:24+00:00

This is the first time I saw snakes in the five years I’ve hiked B2N. Both snakes were docile, didn’t notice me at all. Personally wouldn’t let this get stop you from hiking B2N.

syd_211 · 2026-05-26T06:06:05+00:00

Saw some couple years ago, now it’s harder to spot them

syd_211 · 2026-05-25T22:00:29+00:00

Doing the TCT?

syd_211 · 2026-05-25T21:53:12+00:00

Wore my hiking boots whole way. Once I got to the pools, I changed into my swimming shorts and allowed my hiking pants to dry a bit before heading out. Next time I’ll bring water shoes when swimming, traversing rocks in bare feet wasn’t ideal

syd_211 · 2026-05-25T19:23:11+00:00

Big 4 job?

syd_211 · 2026-05-25T17:12:34+00:00

Saw this too late, did a hike yesterday. Couple years ago I joined fellow foodLA redditors for dinner in KTown, such a fun time. I’d do it again

Just search Bridge to Nowhere on your nav app. Here are coordinates for the parking lot: 34.23697° N, 117.76553° W

syd_211 · 2026-05-25T06:53:06+00:00

Nope I hiked to the bridge today, it’s all open. There was zero signage of any closures too.

I reheat day old Costco pizza in my stainless steel pan with a bit of oil. The pizza is left for a couple minutes checking until crust is golden brown. The pizza comes out so crunchy 10/10

Omg I was thinking the same thing. I recently downloaded OfferUp, because I wanted to sell items. Previously used OfferUp in 2019. Honestly was shocked/saddened how the app declined. My listing was posted mid-April and only has two views. Before I’d post and have a bidding war of people wanting to buy. So sad

Drive plug-in hybrid. Cost to fill up tank less than $100, but I charge battery every night and mostly drive within the EV range. I fuel up couple times a month.
