The Beauty & Danger of Torrey Pines Sandstone Bluffs Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve Don't step too close!
That's the message of geologists, rangers, and your fellow hikers alike
when it comes to appreciating the golden cliffs of Torrey Pines State
Natural Reserve up close. Every day we hold our collective breath when
we spot hikers going "off trail" to get closer to the tops of the
cliffs. Yes, the view of the waves is great, but these edges are
crumbling every day, and it's a long long way down to the beach.
Likewise, at the base of the cliffs, the temptation is great to park
your towel or picnic blanket up against this scenic backdrop. Our film
shows you why this is folly: there have been deaths caused by falling
rock, and you'll view an extraordinary sequence where a section of
cliff falls to the sand in a cloud of dust. Your host is Bob Wohl, the
now-retired supervising ranger at the Reserve for almost 20 years.
