Artists & Activist Unite: Hike To Save Franklin Canyon Trail

BIG EVENT!!!!  'Hike To The Top' on Saturday the 19th.  Plan to hike the Hastain Trail and go up as far as you are able. There is a chain link fence that blocks access to the top and that may or may not be up so if that is as far as we can go then that is where we meet.

Plan to be there by 10 AM. That is, be at the top by 10 AM.  

Patch and the Daily News are covering this.

VERY IMPORTANT;  Bring signs.  Bring signs that state your geographical location i.e. North Hollywood, Studio City,Beverly Hills.  Also any other signs you would like to bring like, 'Save Franklin Canyon,' or something cute and creative.  Patch.com writer, E.M. Fredric is carrying a Team Coco Three Stooges sign for Studio City.

Reason for geographical location signs is to show the huge population that is served by this canyon.  We are  hoping for 100 people at least, carpool. Let's have some FUN!!  Bring snacks and hike your rubbish back out.

Our canyons have been hiked for well over 60 years, we need them as much as they need us.

A map of the canyon can be viewed by clicking the 'Map' tab.
