A small portion of the Angeles National Forest remains temporarily closed after the Bobcat Fire (2020) and subsequent floods--effective June 14, 2024, through October 1, 2024.

This area includes Chantry Flats, a popular recreation area near Sierra Madre, CA, and Arcadia, CA, and trails and access points within/around this vicinity.

The purpose of the closure is to provide for public safety and to facilitate natural recovery of the area affected by the Bobcat Fire.

Additional repairs are still needed in the Chantry Flats area after the Bobcat Fire and post-fire floods. Los Angeles County still continues road work, and the Forest Service is repairing and improving recreational infrastructure. In addition, forest volunteer groups have been working hard to rebuild and repair trails.

The goal is to reopen the area as soon as possible.

For details including a map: visit https://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/angeles/alerts-notices/?aid=80638 or call 626-574-1613 (Mondays through Fridays from 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.).

From Billy Creech at East Mojave Heritage Trail……

Listen Up Gang - IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

I just got off the phone with NPS in the Mojave National Preserve and they have just completed a full heavy equipment and structural repair of the erosion cut on Piute Pass. This is both EMHT Segment 1 and The Mojave Road.

This is really excellent news that that they utilized resources to commit and fix this area as just a few years ago, the prevailing thought was that if that area dropped off and became totally impassable, NPS wouldn't fix it - that the alternate route would become the main route. So, for them to invest in this is a really massive win for us.

Please take the time to thank them when you can.
