Buena Vista Trail Survey - 02-16-2019 - by Gerry ChingLink: Buena Vista Trail Date: 02-16-2019 Surveyor Name: Gerry Ching Trail description: Trail in fair condition, mostly easily followed. This trail was repaired after the Jan 2018 debris flows, but has additional minor damage from recent storms. The trail, starting about 0.4 mile, is a little difficult to follow as it is mostly in or close to the creek bed. The end of the trail used to end in a well-defined "T" which was destroyed. The two arms (one to San Ysdiro, other to Romero) have been somewhat re-routed, and are in good shape, but less clear than before. Both arms have been repaired, but I didn't walk either of the two arms. Mode of transport: Hike Trail condition: Needs some work Condition details: Trail is open and functional
