Getting locked in the park overnight w...Thanks, K!<br /><br />Getting locked in the park overnight would have been a major drag, to say the least.<br /><br />I've had a couple of poorly-timed hikes, already. My third hike of the year, from Eaton Canyon to Mt. Wilson, also involved a locked gate. I hadn't seen the sign that says THAT gate is also locked "at dusk," and didn't get back there until about 30 minutes after sunset, which was too late.<br /><br />Wound up walking the extra mile to the nature center, where I was able to catch a ride from a generous fellow hiker and his wife.<br /><br />My first Van Tassel fire road hike (Feb 7) also ended with me walking in the dark down Encanto Parkway, because I couldn't see the trail leading back to Melcanyon Drive in the dark.SkyHikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149622862975962200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7224556886142717176.post-46445900386249323642010-03-04T18:17:12.653-08:002010-03-04T18:17:12.653-08:00Nice hike!

Yes, the ran...Nice hike! Great photos, as always.<br /><br />Yes, the rangers there are sticklers for closing. They'll be standing at the gate at 5pm, key in hand. <br /><br />To relieve stress, I simply park on the street right outside the gate and start my hike from there.Kahunnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072902518966885345noreply@blogger.com
