The Santa Ana River Trail crosses paths with this beautiful arched viaduct train bridge just east of Van Buren Blvd. (built in 1904)
As I passed under the bridge I began to hear the sounds of...
the horns from the impressive Union Pacific's engines as seen below
After passing under the bridge you then climb a small grade
and arrive at Martha McLean - Anza Narrows Park
This area has some really beautiful vistas
Here we are at the bottom of Deadman's Curve
A roadie successfully make his ascent
and as we reach the top here is the view looking back
Continuing east you then arrive at the the long stretch before Mt Rubidoux
Rounding Mt Rubidoux offers some nice vistas of the wide open Santa Ana River area
I have much more to add and write about this trail
as it ventures eastward
To be continued with many more images and details
