Red tape[edit]
There is a gate blocking access to the fire road to get to the head of the canyon which may or may not be open. It appears it can be closed at any time due to rain, snow or fire danger. You can call the Lytle Creek Ranger Station at 909-382-2851 and check the status of the gate.

Trip reports and media[edit]
Attempted to make the trip on may 25 2015. Very Very overgrown with brush and LOTS of poison IVY and OAK. The initial approach should have been only 1 hour. Took us three with all the detours. ran out of time and didn't know what to expect if we kept proceeding at the rate we were going. Had to make a decision at the point of no return and turned around.
Background[edit]
First known descent in January 2003 by Chris Brennen, Randi Poer, Troy Sette, Garrett Reisman and Simone Francis.
