    First Puppy play date in the snow‍‍ Our friends bought the brother to ours. So much fun! Great…read morefriends = Great puppies‍‍ The puppies and all 4 of us had a blast. Puppies "Brothers 8 Months old." They had a great time playing up and down the snow hills. Walk a 100 yards on the trail, and you will see a little cove for the dogs and kids to play, sled in deep untouched snow. A hidden gem. Safe where we went, no traffic, away from the busy highway. We so enjoyed the puppies first time experiencing the snow with our puppies. TIP: STOP. Weekends: You need a day parking pass $5.00 Where do you buy one. At the visitors center, before going up to the end of Wrightwood. Weekdays you do not need a day parking pass. Rules not unforced during the week days. Top of Wrightwood. Plenty of Parking. Clean Bench, maps of the trail , and two restrooms. Bring your own: seat cover & TP. Hand sanitizer. Mount High Cafe I hope you have as much fun as we did! Great hidden gem.

    Oops! I have no idea why I called the mountains "dainty " On second thought I do, yet let's step…read moreforward. We had a delightful experience! it is an absolutely beautiful place. The creation is beautiful. We all need beauty. There is a lot of ugliness, evil, and error being floated around by various persons so it's nice to be in a place where the unadulterated beauty of the creator shines forth. Wrightwood with all the trees and the streams and the mountains and the birds and the other animals and the snowflakes and the ice and the rain and the sun and the wind and a pretty homes and the delightful architecture and the friendly people, and I hear the church is nice too. Yes I know there is more than one church and if there are other places of worship I apologize; I am not familiar with them.

    Went to MacKay park last month, I did not take any photos that day, but it was a small park good…read morefor family and children. Upon arriving, parking lot is not as big as you would expect, we squeezed in besides the trash cans to park, however it was really clean, and everyone's vibe is nothing but smiles and nods. They do have bathrooms, on the right hand side near the parking lot are swings, to the left and middle part closer to the parking lot has two pickleball courts, and if you walk past the swings the walkway leads to a view and a children's playground. My fiancée and I came for the dog park, which was literally a walk to the left past the actual parking lot. Spacious with a few trees and limited spots for shade. But enough room for your furry friends to stretch their legs!

    What a gem this park is, we got done walking around the Village so we decided to take the girls to…read morethe park for a bit before we went to meet up with our other friends to watch the bands play. Wow this park is amazing, it was very windy and foggy but the kids didn't mind. We brought blankets so through them over us lol and walked over. They have swings when you first walk up, but if you walk a bit further they have the playground. They also have a tennis or bad mitten court and basketball courts too. The playground is so nice and clean and they have a cool zip line for the kids to play on, they loved that so much and had a blast going on it lol. It even has a cute little gazebo such a beautiful park. The girls had a blast we would love to come here again. If you have never been to MacKay Park you should if you have little ones it's really beautiful here. Even if you don't it's peaceful and in the mountains and so lovely. The parking lot is pretty big too so plenty for everyone. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

    PROS: I love the park. Looks like it was built by boyscouts a long time ago. The Mojave river…read moreruns right past it along with dual traintracks and an excellent view of Quarzsite mountain. I've seen all sorts of wildlife here, from ducks, big fish, little fish, crawfish, beavers, hawks, pelicans, huge amounts of crows, Big Owls, and theres squirrels that live at the flagpole. The rocks in the park are known to hide secret treasures from tweakers, i found all sorts of snap on bits, an expensive folding knife and a book on Spiritual Warfare. I love to take my rc trucks as a trail companion, not much action for crawlers. Sometimes I hike the powerline road that leads to the park and washes from Brentwood area. 4x4's are known to drive up the River. There's two large patches of grass and the water company constantly tests the waters so there's daily early visits from specialists. They say it's reservations only but the area has a small amount of parking for many cars. I've never seen law enforcement there. We like to go here primarly cuz not many people are there and it makes my family feel safer. The city mops the place up of grafitti. CONS: This park is now a serious hotspot for human traffickers, people breaking into trains that live in the granite rock quarry directly above the park. Unseen in the park, are shantys, rv's, the rock quarry now a giant trash pit. I was looking for the devil faces in the rocks and found a ghost town of creepy vibes. Go figure. Feb 28th I was almost sacraficed in a vampire coven in apple valley. I walked out of a trap that day only to find that camp on the other side of the mojave river. I barely made it to rockview that day and got picked up. I've gone to this park many many times. I doubt i'll go here anymore without a ccw. I will fear no evil type ahhhh either way. All the wildlife is vanishing, everything is fair game for food thanks to the village of people living near the river. Literally everything has vanished. starting with ducks, then fish, then beavers, then squirrels!!!! It wouldn't surprise me if they are eating crow. Life must be tough. BEWARE: of black magic human traffickers here. What am I talking about? Traps. People that are too friendly, a girl flirting too much, or a guy wanting to see you again to go to other spots or they ask to take pictures of your children. Be careful people, there's an evil cult that has taken over everywhere in the HD, I'm talking full on the worst things you could think of as a business. Extortion, framing, giving stds and claiming u graped, every type of human trafficking problem, selling body parts up to adrenochrome. These people use GHB laced foods/drinks, and other evil drugs to seduce you into whats known as a honey trap. I love you all, discern peoples motives, do they seem dark or like they've done this before. These families are full of smiles, but you can see the anticipation of fear in thier actions. They study your reactions, and mirror you. If you use drugs, they'll lace yours. These are interesting times we live in, God Bless you all, Godspeed. (I'm a good looking guy that open carrys a chrome plated pair of large scissors. I was almost shot in Brentwood park point black by a 357 while holding my 4 year old son. I took my kids to rockview to reconnect them to nature. I'm deeply concerned with the HD falling into evil hands. My favorite things to do in this city now are going to court and watching people in tough situations and praying for them, and praying in an open area of the desert with a 360 view while i watch the sunset.)

    I wanted to go on a little hike here with my family, but not only did it not say anywhere that it…read morewas reservation only (something I only found out through another yelp review) but also the place it was telling us to enter was closed and had a sign saying no parking. On google it says it was open 24hrs today. And when we tried to call, we got a pre-recorded message from October and the website would just not load. Honestly just update your stuff because this was pretty disappointing. Mojave Narrows it is
