Several trails and campsites in the Angeles National Forest, which have been closed since the fires in January, have reopened for visitors, U.S. Forest Service officials have announced.
At one point, fire damage from both the Eton Fire in January and the bridge fire in September closed around 17% of the 700,000 acres of forest.
However, as repairs progressed, the pass gradually resumed. This is the trails, campsites and other locations that became available again on Friday.
