You can access this loop from either Topanga Canyon Blvd. using the Ed Edelman North Loop Access or from the parking lot at the bottom (as mapped).<br><br>The part of the loop that runs along the creek is smooth and has a gentle slope to it. There is no evidence of anyone ever maintaining it, but it looks like hikers and bikers are doing a good job keeping the vegetation cleared.<br><br>The upper part of the loop (where it connects with U-Capa Trail) is almost non-existent. I had trouble even finding the actual trail entrance. Maybe some day someone will clear it, but as of October 2017 that part is a bit of a bushwhack.
