5/5 LeWayne B. 2 years ago on Google
Was
in
the
Pasadena
area
and
wanted
to
try
a
hike
in
the
San
Gabriel
Mountains.
Came
on
Sunday
mid-morning,
so
the
parking
was
pretty
full,
but
people
were
constantly
coming
and
going.
I
wasn't
quite
sure
which
trail
to
take
to
get
to
the
waterfall,
so
followed
others
to
the
left
and
stayed
on
the
main
trail.
There's
several
small
trails
that
veer
off
the
main
path,
but
I
stayed
on
the
main
path.
After
about
30
minutes,
you'll
get
to
a
small
sign
that
says
Eaton
Canyon
Falls
1/2
mile
ahead.
I
followed
that
sign
to
the
right,
but
the
trail
quickly
disappeared.
It's
hard
to
tell
where
the
trail
continues,
but
basically
follow
the
water
upstream.
Since
there's
not
an
obvious
path,
you'll
have
to
cut
back
and
forth
across
the
water
carefully
picking
your
own
path.
I'd
rate
this
a
moderate
hike
as
some
parts
require
some
balancing,
small
jumps,
some
climbs,
and
some
descents.
After
about
45-60
minutes,
you
finally
reach
the
end
of
the
hike
where
the
waterfall
is
located.
It
rained
a
few
days
before
my
hike
so
the
water
was
flowing
at
a
decent
rate.
I
was
told
by
locals
it
can
only
be
a
trickle
during
the
dry
periods.
The
hike
fun
with
plenty
of
shade
after
the
first
15
minutes
of
open
trails.
The
trails
and
paths
were
plenty
wide
and
free
of
debris.
Nice
hike
with
plenty
of
scenery
and
wildlife.
Will
definitely
come
back
and
try
some
of
the
smaller
trails,
but
still
concluding
at
the
waterfall.
