Angeles National Forest
California
> Los Angeles Basin
Description
The Angeles National Forest, and its neighboring areas, encompass most of the San Gabriel Mountain range. It is home to trad, sport climbing and bouldering venues. Elevations rise to 10,000 feet at the summit of Mount San Antonio, providing a scenic alpine-like setting with ideal summer conditions for Southern California's ever-growing climbing population.
Some routes here are in designated wilderness areas, where bolting is prohibited. You can find some current information at the Angeles National Forest website.
Getting There
Most areas are accessed via the Angeles Crest Highway (SR 2) at the city of La Canada Flintridge from the west.
Access from San Bernardino County from the east is currently unavailable due to the closure of the Angeles Crest Highway west of Wrightwood.
[Hide Comment] Roped climbing illegal in the Angeles National Forest? I certainly don't believe it, but some guy was harrased for it and threatened to be ticketed. Check out the thread on SuperTopo:
