Does anyone know if chantry flats is open? I live in Santa Clarita and the last time I drove to Monrovia the road was closed.
Does this also apply to sturtevant falls? I miss that trail so much and am ready to leave no trace!!
It may open June 1. The forest service says: "if there are no “catastrophic circumstances” (disastrous weather), when the post-fire closure order expires May 31st, then the Forest Service will allow a “soft-opening” of the Canyon to the public"
Fingers crossed.
This is great news!
I heard it might be a "soft" reopening. I don't know if a "soft" reopening means that everything will be open or not. Probably won't know until June 1.
Thank you
I spoke to someone recently who said a trail crew has been working super hard on it. We are lucky to have so many great volunteers!
Also, I will write about this when it does open 🤓
Still closed afaik, scroll down on this page to see the actual Forest Service order: https://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/angeles/alerts-notices/?aid=80638
Thank you I miss that shaded trail.
There’s another section that says the order is extended until end of August.
Should be open on June 1. I'm planning a hike that finishes at Chantry Flats (PCT to Silver Moccasins) so will report back around June 19–20.
if there are no “catastrophic circumstances” (disastrous weather), when the post-fire closure order expires May 31st, then the Forest Service will allow a “soft-opening” of the Canyon to the public for the first time since September 2020.
As of yesterday, they are scheduled to do more trail work on June 1st (I'm on a mailing list for volunteers) which means that the trail to Mt Wilson won't be open yet at that point. But it sounds like it will be really soon!
Keep me posted
It’s closed. The closure order lasts until May 31,2024. If the order isn’t extended then it will reopen June 1st
Expect a mob scene on June 1st.

It's still closed but I heard it's supposed to re-open in a couple weeks.
