This is a Veteran's Day Hike requested by Nancy from Pacific Palisades
The Rivas Canyon Trail connects Temescal Canyon and Will Rogers State Historic Park. We will begin at Temescal Gateway Park. We will climb a circuitous route up the eastern ridge of Temescal Canyon and then promenade down into Rivas Canyon. Continuing through riparian and oak woodland vegetation toward Will Rogers and past the Polo Grounds we will head up Rustic Canyon, perhaps do that loop, stop at Inspiration Point and return to Temescal.
Hike will be 8-10 miles with moderate elevation gain.
