Hiking 1:31:00 [3] 5.4 mi (16:51 / mi) +441m 13:27 / mi
Exploratory hike up Eaton Canyon, Pasadena. Started around 3 p.m, was supposed to be out of the park by 5. The Eaton Canyon Trail is wide and has a lot of foot traffic. I went up Coyote Canyon, which isn't worthwhile -- just a short, unmaintained path up the bottom of the canyon to a headwall.
The next fork on the right is Walnut Canyon, which goes steeply up and meets the Mt. Wilson road. The trail was fun, and I walked up the road for a while (not so fun) before turning around. Looks like I stopped just short of a cutoff trail up towards Henninger Flats, which has a campground and visitor center. You can easily see the flats from down in Pasadea, a tree-covered shoulder on the Mt. Wilson ridgeline.
