Eaton Canyon Waterfalls walk

http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/2/2/a/event_199032842.jpegWe'll go to an easy walk to Eaton Canyon Waterfalls! This flat, rocky trail parallels a seasonal stream and will appeal to explorer types who don’t mind scrambling over boulders and forging their own way from time to time. It isn't a good trail since you'll be walking over rocks part of the way. It is 3 miles RT and 200 feet elevation gain. Some rocks may be slippery.

Meet at 1:45 PM, but leave at 2 PM. Meet at the only building there. It is next to the parking lot. Bring shoes with good traction!!! ALso bring water. Optional potluck at waterfalls. Feel free to bring something to share--if you want. We'll stay at the waterfalls for 45 minutes to 1 hour. If you don't want to stay that long, you can easily find your way back.

Several people have died last year because they climbed up near the waterfalls. Don't do anything stupid. http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/local/los_angeles&id=8293035

We aren't climbing up at all! We'll take the route most people take to see this beautiful waterfall.

Parking lot may fill up. There is parking in the residential area above. Rain cancels hike.
