Know Before You Go:

• The Saigon Trail is also referred to as the Ho Chi Minh Trail or La Jolla Trail.

• It is an extremely treacherous hike given the sandstone gets very slippery when wet. There are roughly 50-100 cliffside rescues that happen every year and oftentimes via helicopter due to injuries.

• Avoid this trail especially right after rainfall and be careful on the ledges; the area is also prone to flash-flooding.

• This is a beautiful slot canyon hike that reaches Black's Beach.

• If you walk north along the beach, be aware you are reaching the clothing-optional section!

• **Note that free parking is limited to two hours along La Jolla Farms Road.
