Here is a fund raising idea for the friends of the Eaton Canyon Nature Center:
A canoe race down the wash.
Maybe from the bridge to the Nature Center. Since there is no water you’ll have to carry the canoes and run (rules will be needed) But a good time will be had by all and the fund raising opportunities are endless: sponsors, entry fees, food concessions. The model will be the Cheese Roll in Brockworth, England or the Running of the Bulls in Pamploma, Spain.
The risk avoiders will probably squelch this idea before it has a chance to get going.
In the old days, when there was a cable car type vehicle that went up into the San Gabriel mountains, they should have built a flume all of the way down to where the 210 freeway now stands. They should have pumped water up the mountain and given water rides to the bottom.
Good ideas Ken. I did have the idea of a Zip Line down from Henninger. https://simonburrow.com/?p=3795
