Reopen Williamson Rock

The Issue

Williamson Rock has been closed to all recreational activities since 2005.

The reason given for this "Temporary" closure was a sighting of the endangered Mountain Yellow-Legged Frog  a 1000 feet down stream of this popular rock climbing area nestled high in the Angeles National Forest.

The real reason for the closure was the Federal Government bowing to lawsuits threatened and brought by special interest groups.

In the proceeding 12 years no action has been taken by any of the involved agencies other than to write report after report of environmental assessments.

This is Public Land that has been taken from the Public.

We want it back.
