Way Out Wild Friendsgiving Hike - Sturtevant Falls

* ***THIS IS A WOMEN-IDENTIFYING-ONLY TRIP****

For this adventure, we will be coming together to celebrate the Thanksgiving Season with a short hike to the newly reopened Sturtevant Falls.

This hike is one of the easiest and most rewarding hikes you can do in the Los Angeles area. Now while it does have a steep decline during the first half-mile, which turns into a steep incline for the last half mile when you are hiking back, the trail is only around 3.6 miles round trip and is suitable for most people to do with ease. The trail is located in Big Santa Anita Canyon in the San Gabriels Mountains.

Its a POTLUCK so don't forget to bring a little something to share with the group. We will also have coffee at the waterfalls courtesy of our barista guides!
