Bear Canyon Loop OHV Trail Survey - 05-03-2020 - by Los Padres Forest AssociationLink: Bear Canyon Loop OHV Trail Date: 05-03-2020 Surveyor Name: Los Padres Forest Association Trail description: The LPFA Trail Crew will be working this trail later this month. We scouted the eastern branch of the trail to see what we were up against. There is no sign for the trail but it starts on the western edge of a small pond and from there drops down through heavy grass for about 1/4 of a mile before entering the chaparral. Once in the chaparral the trail is easy enough to follow but is overgrown. It would not be an enjoyable motorcycle ride at the moment but the tread appears in good enough shape that once we clear away the brush this could be a good ride once again. Mode of transport: Hike Trail condition: Hard to follow Images:
