Switzer Falls is a great hike in the San Gabriels Mountain Range that is around 4.5 miles and goes to two different waterfalls. I did the hike in July 2019 and there was still a decent amount of water from all of the rain we had in 2019, making for some nice falls and even a good swimming hole.

In 1973, when we'd ditch school at Franklin H.S. in Highland Park to hike to Switzer falls, the water in the pool was deeper. We'd be able to jump off from the top of the fall into the water. It looks only thigh-high now. Storm water must have washed silts down there and filled the pool right up. I'd never dare to do what we did back then. Thanks for showing me around at a place I haven't visited in decades and decades, and decades. "Maine" says "hello".

Very cool! The lower falls reminds me of a small fall on Santa Cruz Island in The Central Valley, as you have to rock scramble up a cliff to go above the falls. And that’s where I stopped! Beautiful 👍

I almost died there in 1978. The people I was with took me on the upper trail. It was slippery and I fell into the fall shoes and all. I fell perfectly into the hole made by the water and made my way up to the surface after 20 seconds of struggling to swim up only to be hit by a torrent of water. At that time there was a steel cable to get over a large Boulder that required that you hang with your feet on the Boulder, mountain climber style to get over the Boulder. I didn’t like the idea of hanging in mid air like that and tried crawling over the Boulder. Turning back was not an option as it was a jump to get back on the trail.

It was really hot but we started at 7:30 or so and there is only one section on the way out without shade. The dip in the water made that section not too bad.
