Get ready to lace up your boots for the MCRC Annual Hike! This year, we're taking on the legendary Bridge to Nowhere in the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument.

IMPORTANT - FOR THOSE GOING ON THE HIKE THIS WEEKEND:
If you are going on the "Bridge to Nowhere Hike" you will need a Forest Pass for your dashboard to park at the trailhead. Here is how you can get it:
Digital Passes: Available instantly on Recreation.gov for immediate download to your phone (though you will need to print out certain regional passes like the Northwest Forest Pass to display on your dashboard).
In-Person (Recommended):Buy physical hang-tags or inter-agency passes at Ranger Stations or local partner stores near the forest you are visiting. If you are in Azusa, you can pick up a Southern California Adventure Pass at local shops nearby (such as the 7-Eleven at 455 E Foothill Blvd or 400 W Foothill Blvd). Big 5 Sporting Goods Stores. )
