🌿💦 Join us for a scenic Saturday morning adventure!
On Saturday, October 17 at 8:00 AM, we’re heading out for the Brown Mountain Dam Waterfall hike in the Angeles National Forest.
This one is a great mix of distance without too much climbing, with shaded canyon sections, Arroyo Seco scenery, and the waterfall/dam as the payoff. It’s a nice change of pace from our steeper mountain hikes and a good one for meeting new people along the trail. 🙌

After the hike, we’ll head to Hill Street Cafe in La Cañada Flintridge for brunch and some post-hike hang time. 🙌
