At one time this trail was well maintained, I think by the public rental stables that were located at the Silverado Stable site. (Was it called the B Bar stables?) And then some Backcountry Horsemen members fixed the fence. But in the past few years it has taken some bad hits (literally by cars that went through the fence and over the cliff) The result is that the trail has some bad ruts and the fence is down in some crucial areas. It would sure be nice to have the fence repaired and a metal barrier (bottom photo) put up to stop cars from going over the cliff. Just another item for my wish list when the economy gets better...
Pat Mumford has some answers: It was Bar O Stables and the Kern Sierra Unit of the Backcountry horsemen did a cleanup of the trail about 5 years ago. It's a wonderful hill with great views, although it is right next to Alfred Harrel Highway, it is the only way to get to Goodmanville (and on to Hart Park) from Ethel's.
