West Fork Cold Springs Trail to above Tangerine Falls.  A new hike for Happy Hikers.  8:00AM. Bring lots of water.  No hike if raining. No need to register, just show up!  The trail to the top of Tangerine Falls is long, over 3miles total and is steep, (strenuous). The total distance is close to 6 miles.  Bring lots of water, sunblock, and snacks.    DIRECTIONS: Meet at the Cold Springs trailhead on E Mountain Dr., just east of the stream crossing. There is ample street parking on weekdays. From either direction on Fwy 101, exit at Olive Mill Road and turn toward the mountains. Continue up Olive Mill Rd 1.0 mile, crossing East Valley Rd where name changes to Hot Springs Rd. After another 1.0 mile turn left on East Mountain Drive. Go 1.1 miles to trailhead on the right, just before the creek crossing.  (You’ll probably see cars & hikers when you first turn onto East Mountain Drive. That is another trailhead.  Do not stop. Continue 1.1 miles.) HIKE LEADER  Bo Kite,roykite2015@gmail.com; + Richard Haro richardharo@icloud.com, Deborah Rodgers, Donna Haro, Neil Polans, & Susan Wong. 

Hope to see you there!
