Urgent! We need your help
Support access for bicycles in the newly acquired Upper Filiorum Reserve

Attend the Sept 8th workshop at Fred Hesse Community Park (map). The workshop is an informal way to express your views. Input from the workshop will be used to develop a plan that will determine what trails will be kept and who will be allowed to use them. The workshop starts at 6:30 PM. Please spread the word.

Help Provide Input on the Trails at Upper Filiorum  (view flier)

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes and the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy, with support from the State Coastal Conservancy and contributions from over 700 supporters in the community, added the 191-acre Upper Filiorum property to the Palos Verdes Nature Preserve on December 31, 2009. The acquisition resulted in over 900 contiguous acres of protected open space and a wildlife corridor linking the Three Sisters and the Portuguese Bend Reserves. The City Council adopted Preserve Trails Plan will need to be amended to include the Upper Filiorum trail routes and uses, and your input on the trail planning is requested.

Please join us at the upcoming workshops to provide your input on trail planning for the new portion of the Preserve.

Wednesday, Sept. 8, 2010 – obtain public feedback on potential trail routes and uses

Trail Etiquette

Yield to all others
Stop for horses & move to the downhill side of the trail.
Horses are easily frightened, so ask the rider what to do!
Slow or stop for hikers. Ask if it's okay to pass.

Stay on trails designated for bikes
Trail signs have been posted and sheriffs are patrolling.
  If there is no sign, the trail is closed to all users.
  Obey all reserve rules.
  All cyclists will be judged by your actions!

Do not make new trails or jumps
This is an ecological reserve, not a vacant lot.
Destruction of habitat will not be tolerated.

Never speed past anyone
Make the trail experience enjoyable for everyone.

Leave no trace
Pick up trash, yours and others’.
