Trail description:Thank you, LPFA trail crew, for a job well done clearing the Willow Spur Trail and Willow Spring Figueroa Trail.

Willow Spur Trail Survey - 05-07-2022 - by Ari Songer
Link: Willow Spur Trail
Date: 05-07-2022
Surveyor Name:Ari Songer
Trail description:I hiked this as part of a loop starting at the upper Davy Brown Trailhead. From the top, I hiked downhill 1 mile to the junction with Davy Brown, Munch Canyon and Willow Spur. I took the Willow Spur trail which heads to the West where it connects with Willow Spring trail after 1 mile. 1/2 into the Willow Spur trail the brush got thick. The trail is COVERED in poison oak and in need of some serious slough removal where the trail has been buried and turned into a narrow, uneven path. There were 3 downed trees on this 1 mile section.
Mode of transport:Hike
Trail condition:Needs some work
Condition details:Figueroa Scouting

Willow Spur Trail Survey - 01-27-2020 - by Tony G.
Link: Willow Spur Trail
Date: 01-27-2020
Surveyor Name:Tony G.
Trail description:Hiked this trail from the Davey Brown trail to the Willow Springs trail to Catway Road. The trail doesn't get much use but is in surprisingly good shape. The tread is narrow but is mainly clear at this time of the year. As soon as the poison oak leafs out it will be a different story. Only a few dead falls but they are passable. Plenty of ticks though.
Mode of transport:Hike
Trail condition:Needs some work
