So it is with a heavy heart that I tell you that this is technically no longer possible, unless you have written permission from the San Diego River Park Foundation before hand. The San Diego River Park Foundation contacted me to let me know of the change and this is what is listed on their web page on the subject. Ownership was subsequently transferred to the San Diego River Park Foundation so that it could be maintained in perpetuity in conformance with a Conservation Easement which was placed over the entire property. Access to this property requires advanced authorization by the San Diego River Park Foundation.

The Trans Catalina Trail : An adventure from Avalon to Two Harbors. I recently decided to take a little adventure over to Catalina Island, one of the Channel Islands off of the coast of Southern California. I hade never been there and my buddy was trying to figure out some hike to do to celebrate his upcoming 50th birthday, when he had asked me if I had ever been to Catalina There is a lot of good information on the internet about how to do this hike, and we did not do the whole thing, we decided to do 24 miles in 3 days from Avalon to Two Harbors.

Now I know there is a big difference between what westerners here in the USA expect to taste in a product (sweet, salt, fat) and what you may taste in other foods from around the world, I have found that most sweets from Europe have a understated sweetness when compared to comparable American products, my wife has even told me that she lost weight when visiting in Europe just because she did not like the sweets over there. For hikes that I am familiar with I might only bring a food bar and an apple, while other longer hikes or areas that I am not familiar with I may bring more substantial amounts of food for fuel. I think this could be a good food source for longer hikes or backpacking trips, especially if you have a vegan life style. This product is pretty fulfilling and not something that I would necessarily need for shot hikes but I can see it being another handy food source if you like long hikes and or backpacking trips.

I know some people will lament the loss of the rope area of this trail, and I will admit that it added a little something to the adventure of coming out to the falls, but I think what was lost was far outweighed by what was gained. As I was sitting there talking with some hikers about the changes to the trail I could already hear people talking about heading back up the sketchier trail anyways I’ve also noticed parts of the new trail that are already being cut through with short cuts and people who get a little lost when you get closer to the water fall ( just follow the pink ribbons) All in all I think the changes are a welcome addition to this popular trail and I hope people enjoy the experience without ruining it for everyone else.
