Portions of this trail that crosses through City of Industry are not inaccessible or detoured, especially along the drainage corridor along Valley. I would advise if heading westwards (towards Hacienda Heights) to use Valley to detour from Lemon to Azusa, then continuing the trail into Schabarum Regional Park.

This Trail is well established and has good trail head markers. There are great views to the north of the San Gabriel's. There is good elevation gain and the switchbacks make it an easy climb. Nice trail to get your mind right.
