Warriors of the Santa Anas

Directions Website

Warriors of the Santa Anas The Warriors of the Santa Anas are dedicated to maintaining and improving the trails in the Cleveland National Forest.

Our club is based on the American Indian Traditions of the Warrior's Society. The Warrior's Society is made up of wilderness cyclists, trail runners and hikers who have dedicated themselves to improving and protecting the trails of the Trabuco District of the Cleveland National Forest in Orange County California. They must also share our love of the land and the endurance to ride or hike it. Members must be nominated and voted in by existing members. The US Forest Service honored us with the 2002 trail advocate award for region 5, which includes the state California. We are also closely monitoring the push to designate new wilderness areas in California and around our nation. It is our belief that another designation is needed that would protect our forests as well as our freedom to responsibly enjoy them. The Back Country Designation is one proposed alternative.

Met these crazies pushing up
Pipeline/Telephone trail. Rarely see people on this ridiculous trail. It was a joy to share the fun with these adventurers. Go exploring! You might discover your next favorite trail.. I'm sure these guys will be back. This is one of my favorite ways into the Santa Ana mountains. Start at Green River trailhead, take Santa Ana River Trail briefly then Pipeline Trail into Telephone Trail and eventually to the summit of Sierra Peak.

Saturday, September 19
we returned to Maple Springs/Four Corners for our fifth clean up this year. The party litter at the pullouts and Four Corners is just the tip of the iceberg, unfortunately. There is illegal dumping that occurs in the forest. We found and cleaned up one site the best we could. We hauled about two truck loads of trash out of the forest, a lot from this one site. Thank you to all the volunteers who came out to make the forest better for us all. It felt good making an impact and enjoying the riding together. If you'd like to get involved, sign up for our mailing list at warriorsofsantaanas.org.

Printed Santa Ana Mountain maps are in the house!!! All of these are already taken. If you missed the first run and want your own printed copy, let me know. $60 donation. We can do another print run if there’s enough interest. Trail proposals are unofficial trails we’d like brought into the official CNF trail inventory, a collaboration with Corona MTB Jason Bennett Orange County MTB Association. The Santa Ana Mountains Traverse is a BOLT-candidate route we’ve submitted and are hopeful to get official BOLT status. Thanks to Orange County MTB Association and Jim Foley’s (Jim Foley) FB group Orange County Mountain Biking for support on the BOLT submission. You can learn more about the BOLT route and download this map on our website: warriorsofsantaanas.org
