    To park anywhere in Angeles National Forest, Cleveland National Forest, Los Padres National Forest and the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument you’ll need a National Forest Adventure Pass Permit $ 5 per day or $ 30 per year that you can buy at more sports stores as well as gas stations and most 7 eleven stores near the Mountains

    Thank you so much for watching, most of my videos are time sensitive , that means I try to go places when there is a better chance of having the best views and experience. For example if you watch video of a seasonal waterfall and you decide to visit but when you get there it’s completely dry that’s a bummer. Same thing if I show wildflowers blooming, you visit and they are long gone! Or a place with snow, you go and it’s all melted!
    Right after I go hiking I post my videos as soon as possible.
    That’s why it’s very important that you subscribe and a active the notification bell so you won’t miss a thing!!

    Great job. Now all the homies and their compadres are going to go trash the place like they did the Azusa canyons. Tecate boxes and trash everywhere with every other rock tagged up with graffiti.

    Man, I’ve been coming up here for over 20 years & YES there are bears. And sometime deer. But there’s so many people showing up at these spots now, you hardly see any wildlife anymore. I’m glad to see there’s still fish in the water tho.

    • @lopezexplora

      When there are many people they hide, they still around. This happens when I was at bridge to nowhere on winter and zero people around: Bighorns Sheep at Angeles National Forest ( Bridge to Nowhere )
