[ACT] Trails Blocked in Cobb Estate

[Gaboon]

Ross, Other Equestrians and Trail Users who have seen the changes in  
the Cobb Estate segments of the ACT,

Please come to the Altadena Crest Trail Restoration Working Group  
(ACTRWG) Steering Committee Meeting tomorrow night (Tuesday), 8 Feb  
at 7:00pm in the Altadena Community Center (on Altadena Drive just  
west of Lake across the street from Rite Aid and next to the Altadena  
Sheriffs Station). Bring photos, if possible, of the trail changes to  
share. We will discuss options and try to find out what has happened  
and why, and ask the appropriate agency(ies) to correct.

I am copying the County and USFS reps regarding blockage of trail  
access in the Cobb Estate area. They may be busy with rain-related  
activities; however, I hope reps will be in attendance to answer  
questions about this matter and to report on other trail conditions.

Thanks for your info.

Robert Staehle
ACTRWG Steering Committee Meeting Chair

Trails Blocked in Cobb Estate

Another well meaning stupid project...

Put Outward or Upward Bound kids to work at the Cobb Estate blocking  
the horse trails with logs and pungi sticks. The idea was so the  
Audabon Society signs are not graffetied. Huh? Still trying to make  
sense out of this one. Maybe the taggers are riding horses now.  
Another excuse is erosion control but the blocked trails were away  
from pedestrian walkways and were hardpacked and there forever. Now  
they have been dug up, trenched and trashed with branches logs and  
holes. I thought this was a part of the ACT... what gives? Is the  
USFS in charge here?

Many horse guys super upset.

Ross
