Vasquez Rocks Jan 7th 2024

Vasquez Rocks Natural Area, Agua Dulce

Sunday, January 7, 2024

Our most popular venue was once again a pleasure. Courses set by Goran Hellgren and Bruce Garbaccio presented a wide variety of route choice and technical challenge. Alex Kiperman managed to edge out Roland Hansson to win the Red course. On Green, Nikita Phillips took his first win of the COOL season. Clare Durand, with Winkie in tow, took the honors on the Brown course. A large Troy contingent filled the Orange results, with Jason Pan squeaking out a win over Logan Perez. Winners on Yellow and White were Luke Tran and Wayne Cottrell.

Our sincere appreciation to the rangers at Vasquez for all of their help and cooperation and to the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation for their partnership.
