Description
The bridge across the Sandy River on the Ramona Falls Hike is put in each spring and removed in the fall. Contact the info center (888-622-4822) to find out if it's in.
In the picture, the Sandy River looks like a pretty minor stream that could be easily crossed but be careful. After heavy rains or in the spring when there's heavy snow melt it's difficult to cross. People have been killed here.
One problem, is the trail, especially on the south side of the river, can be undercut by the river. Be wary of this, especially when the river flow is heavy and where the trail goes close to the river.
