Hours were updated a few months ago. Probaly rangers not wanting to wake up early. Maybe you can get in from the Whittier side?
Summer hours
There is wild life and they want to respect it and give the animals their own time ..
9-6 for summer Try the frame drive trailhead. That one is open from sunrise to sunset
The hours are 9-5 winter and 9-6 summer for the wildlife who live there. We are trying to balance the recreational use with the survival of the wildlife and health of the environment. Arroyo Pescadero, Powder Canyon and Schabarum Trail are open at sunrise and close at sunset. Lots of options at www.HabitatAuthority.com
We were told neighbors complain about trash and loud music. Car alarms going off to early. I don't know why they complain if there's a school there and alot of traffic. We need it open early please.
They say because of safety, and out of service hours they can not offer proper "care?"
