(N 37.8.385, W 119.22.950) From Italian Bar Road
 |
| From the Sierra Packing Trip Web Site look for #3 |
There are two ways to walk this--from the east and from the west. We have down the west side, from Italian Bar Road twice. Both times we stopped at Stevenson Creek Falls-see the video below-our view did not look anything like that.
This road is closed to motorized vehicle traffic, except for Southern California Edison and other official vehicles. Consequently it is a great walking and biking road.
It was created as part of the Big Creek Project.
