The Hoof Beat November 2005

Rim of the Valley

Time has run out. Los Angeles Trails and open space have been reduced in many areas to public utility easements, 2 parks, and "dirt sidewalks" in urban tracts that serve as riding and hiking Trails. These are isolated into "islands" with no plan to connect them. Citywide Planning has established designated routes, but trails have not been dedicated or built. The RIM portion of the trail must link to entry points in the recreational trail network within 1/4 mile of urban communities via urban trails.

Rim of the Valley needs your help. Be an advocate that will support the last remaining habitat, rural and agricultural areas and promote saving land for a trails network that will keep open access and continuity between such popular locations as Griffith Park, Verdugo Mountains, Simi Hills, Santa Monica Mountains, Browns Canyon, Tujunga Wash, Los Angeles River and Angeles Forest.
