You guessed it, $$$ MONEY $$$ What we are hoping is you check out the trailer to the film, get the biggest […]
Never Forget 9-11 2015
You have no idea how much hate mail I get from locals who threaten me with violence, demanding I take down directions to their local swimming spot. I get it, you don’t want anyone to “destroy” your local swimming hole with graffiti and litter. But from what I’ve come to learn, this form of localism […]
Cliff Jumping Mt. Baldy Slide 8 2 15
Mt. Baldy has been catching a few thunderstorms this summer which have kept the water flowing nicely on the mountain. We rallied up a fat posse and spent the day drinking beer, smoking gange, cliff jumping and butt-sliding. Afterward, we cleaned up the place and yelled at a mom for leaving her shit-maker’s diaper behind […]

Fish Canyon Falls 4 11 15

Rindge Dam Closed to Public
We gave you paradise and you monsters destroyed it. Learn to clean up and not graffiti places you love.
Tule River Cliff Jumping 7/20/14
The Tule River is the best spot to spend a weekend camping and cliff jumping. If you’re lucky enough to get a camp spot at Wishon Campground you have the perfect home base for the best weekend ever. The only problem is it’s next to impossible to get a camp site there. You have to […]

Gold Strike Hot Springs 1/9/14
What is up everybody? Last week LAS took a trip to Goldstrike Canyon for some hiking and soaking adventures. This hike is not for the weak, in fact, we saw about 30 life-lovers corpsed out along the trail; what better place to test your exit bag. While this trail would be considered “technical” we hiked […]
San Juan Hot Springs 1/4/14
San Juan Hot Springs is one of those spots I’ve been meaning to check out for a long time. I found some pix of the place on the internet awhile ago and never made it out there, but yesterday I finally got off my ass and explored. Melissa and I hiked in from the rear […]

Matilija Dam Cliff Jumping 8 4 13
There is a film coming out next year called DamNation, it’s a documentary about dams in America.

Sapphire Falls 9 9 12
Went out to Sapphire Falls in Rancho Cucamonga for some cliff jumping adventures. Recently the city made it illegal to hike up the falls via the wash cuz some shithead resident keeps bitching about his swollen vagina.

Monkey Canyon 6 16 12
Sup brodies?! Last weekend we drove out to Monkey Canyon to check the water level hoping it would be deep enough to jump, it wasn’t. Usually the pool below the slide is 12 feet deep but since the Station Fire a couple years ago the entire canyon has been silted in. The water is only […]

Tar Creek 4 28 12
Tar Creek, fuck yes! It feels good to be back in LA. New York city kinda sucks for cliff jumping, I thought I was gonna find a rich cougar out there to pay for me to get drunk, but that didn’t happen. Fuck it. So this trip was pretty nuts. Definitely more people than we […]

Fuck yeah! Another posse trip to our secret spot out near Switzer Falls. Well it’s not so secret cause we post directions on here, ha. We had to park halfway up the road because all the spots at the bottom were taken by jerk families BBQing at the picnic area. Isn’t that why people buy […]

THIS IS WHAT NOT SWIMMING LOOKS LIKE
Screw moving
Deep Creek 8 8,9 09
Hiked to Deep Creek Hot Springs via Bradford Ridge trail, this trail sucks. As much of a pain it is to pay the 10 bucks at Bowen Ranch, the hike from there is definitely easier than this route. Or if you have an OHV you can start up at the Freedom Trailhead. We met up […]

Road Trip in picture form. We hit up Barton Spring, Inks Lake and the Guadalupe River for some toobin. Met up with Frank and awesomed it up.
BIG TUJUNGA CANYON 7 19 09
This hike was very long and ruthless. We decided to hike from Colby Camp to Monkey Canyon, we only made it to the bridge. This hike took us about 6 hours plus. First half of the hike there was water, but it wasn’t flowing too well. Lots of swimmin holes on the way and a […]
HERMIT FALLS 7 18 09
Another crowded day at Chantry Flats. Full parking lot and tons of idiots running around with their unleashed dogs. We made it out to this place around 2pm then hiked in. Trail is super simple on the way in, half of it is in the sun the other half under the treeline. Took us about […]
Potrero John Falls Hike
Nice hike but no swimmin on this one. Water flow was low and pool looked like it had leeches in it. Directions: From Ventura, Travel north on Highway 33 for about 32 miles to the trailhead on the right(north) side of the road. The trailhead is right after a bridge and the parking spot can […]

Kern 6 13,14 09
Awesome trip, total madness. Too many people to name possed on this one. The core killers plus some hardtime thug-dogz. HUGE POST. Pix say it all.
GOULD MESA 5 22 09
Great hike through the woods above JPL. Cliff jumping would be better during wet season. Pool is at the base of a small concrete dam. Fun short hike, and you can even mt bike this trail. Parking is a bizneoizneotch. Tons of mt bikers take this trail all weekend so have a blast looking for […]
MATILLIJA FALLS 5 15 09
Amazing trip as always to Matillija falls in Ojai. Spend 2 nights camping and swimmin and eating the shit out of some smart dogs and vegan chili. Drank a crap ton of whiskey and pooped like no other. The water was perfect and no one else was bugging us the whole time. Saw a few […]
THE GROTTO 5 9 09
Great hike to the grotto with the the old lady. Saw one other person on the trail and heard tons of snakes. The grotto is pretty scary, if you are a wimp. Tons of newts swimmin around and swimmy garter snakes. Direction follow: Circle X Ranch is 5 ½ miles from Pacific Coast Highway on […]
MALIBU CREEK ROCK POOLS 4 26 09
One of the easier to get to spot makes this place very crowded especially on the weekends. Expect at least 50 people on any given weekend in the late spring/summer. This hike was taken from the trailhead along Mullholland Dr. You can choose to park in the state park parking lot and pay the 10 […]
BRIDGE TO NOWHERE 4 19 09
Took the long hike to the bridge to nowhere. Sort of an exhausting hike on a hot day. The swimmin spot was pretty small but still fun. Directions are as follows. From Interstate 10 or the 210 freeway, exit on Azusa and head north 10 miles or so, paralleling the San Gabriel Dam on your […]
MONKEY SLIDE 4 5 09

CATARACT FALLS AND HERMIT AND TAR CREEK
This weekend was hectic. After hitting Paradise Falls on Friday, Throb picked up The Pump and Morgue for a trip to Tar Creek on Saturday. The Pump missed out on Tar Creek earlier in the month so we took him there and he had a blast. Slid the lower part of the big falls, jumped […]
