Loma Linda Works to Preserve Local Trails
December 2007 - The Loma Linda City Council this
month agreed to work with private landowners to
acquire land in the hills to connect its trail network.
The city owns about 1,000 acres at the top and
bottom of the hills, but a large segment in the
middle is in private hands. Besides protecting land
it already owns, the city plans to seek easements
and rights-of-way from private owners in order to
complete the trail system, which would stretch from
about Reche Canyon to San Timeteo Canyon.
