HIDDEN TREASURES OF THE EAST FORK | San Gabriel Mountains | Southern California 2019

HIDDEN TREASURES OF THE EAST FORK | San Gabriel Mountains | Southern California 2019

Our group went for another adventure somewhere along the East Fork River of the San Gabriel Mountains. We stayed (most of us) overnight in a place that is also special to our friend Eric who passed away just recently. We call this place “The Beach”. The area that covers the whole hike is filled with historic abandoned mines, old road and a hidden water falls. Due to safety issues, we cannot reveal publicly the locations of the mines. The group consists of Alan, Jennifer & Steve, Bill (Solobackpacker), Luis, Martin, Mike, Jason (ReWhite&Blue78), Steve and myself.

    FYI, fire of any sorts including stoves are prohibited in the LA National Forest and San Gabriel Mountains until December 2020 due to “extreme” conditions. It is in effect as of Oct. 23rd under Forest Order No. 05-01-19-06.

    Very nice! Devils Gulch is a beautiful waterfall. Reminds me of one I went to in Ventana.

    Awesome excursion and video Robert! After all these years I still have yet to camp out in the East Fork. I’m gonna have to tag along with you guys this up coming year.
    Thanks for another great video!

    I’ve been to east fork many times sluicing and panning gold,I was told not use the river water for drinking or cooking because of high mercury content,and not to eat the fish out of it for tht reason,any truth to that?

  18. eye on Vision on April 5, 2021 at 2:56 pm

    Hi great video. Do you need to have reservations to camp there ?

  19. Backwood Hound on April 5, 2021 at 3:01 pm
