NOTE: BECAUSE THIS HIKE GETS REALLY POPULAR IN WATERFALL SEASON, WE ARE LIMITED BY NATIONAL PARK SERVICE RULES TO 50 HIKERS MAXIMUM, AND CAR-POOLING IS MANDATORY--THE RANGERS GET A BIT CRANKY IF WE PACK THEIR PARKING LOT. WE ARE LIMITED TO 12 CARS.
If you are not one of the 50 lucky people who make it onto the attendance list, and you come anyway, i am required to give you a dirty look.
THIS IS A GUITAR HIKE. I WILL BE TAKING REQUESTS...

Park in the lot with the sign saying "Sandstone Peak trailhead". THERE IS A RESTROOM HERE
DRIVING TIME: Typically it takes an hour and a half from downtown or west L.A to get here (or an hour from the San Fernando valley)
We will first pass a series of cascading mini falls. Then we will connect with the Grotto trail, and cross a much bigger waterfall. Soon, to our left,we will see falls #2 and 3. Then when we hit the canyon bottom and an old campground, we are really close to the grotto.
The Grotto is really cool because this is a 20 foot underground waterfall, located in a room under a giant boulder in the canyon.
POST HIKE optional dinner at Neptune's Net (located at PCH and Yerba Buena Road)
