There's another one in La Tuna canyon but that's off on a private road and there's about 100 feet of Big Tujunga missing, fell in the river, got a cool pic of that one yesterday.

Down at the very bottom near the probation camp. No big deal cuz that section sucks anyways. I'll try to post my picture later.
