    My friend and I went hiking in Claremont and intended on doing the loop, but when we saw the sign…read moreleading to Potato Mountain, we decided to head up! I've only heard about this spot, but have never been so I was excited to explore. The hike is not shaded and has a steady incline, so I was grateful that it was overcast and cool most of the day. The trail is wide enough for a car to drive on, and no major rocky areas, so I would say that if you were reeeeeally ambitious and wanted to push a jogging stroller up and down, you probably could. There are occasional bikers that we passed, but otherwise just a few hikers doing this trail, much less than the number of people doing the loop, which I actually liked. With the exception of the ugly graffiti on the concrete thing at the top, we were rewarded with a beautiful view of the valley on one end, and snow capped mountains on the other end. It didn't take that long to summit ( I think it took us less than an hour each way), so if you have a couple hours for something a little more challenging than the loop, this is a good hike! Parking is available in the lot starting at $10 (Yikes!) on the weekends. Enjoy!

    First time visitor There are not bathrooms anywhere…read more There are a few (3?) trash can / compost / recycle green bins at the start of the trail There is not a designated parking area if coming on MT Baldy RD, park after the last No Stopping Any time sign (will see Angeles Forest large sign) then can park on the side of the road and forward Be aware of oncoming traffic both directions when walking to the trail head Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunblock, water, snacks It is dog friendly but tough for stroller I think based on continual incline and gravel and rocky terrain Also note air may feel thinner as you start the trail so be mindful of your breathing and take rest stops Start of trail will be walking through shaded area with tree and can hear water and as continue the pathway make your descent up As you make your way further up, there will be part to turn left or go straight to the right, head to the left to continue upward - you'll see amazing clouds surrounding the mountain and the trail continuing You'll see a pathway that curves down the hill then back up, a right triangular metal sign will indicate going the right way and almost to the end of the trail. Other markers is seeing small forms of graffiti and the name Joey tagged on things Once on top, enjoy your accomplishment and then it's primarily a down hill return Enjoy Hydrate Limited cell service pending what part of the mountain on Enjoy the birds flowers rock formation little critters that pop In and out Would certainly return to try the other routes to potato mountain

Good for the new generation of Cal Poly Pomona college staff and students to have a beautiful facility compared to what I and others tolerated back in the 80's. This facility is better than other Division 1 programs in the country, especially in the midwest region. The students who toured us around were Hospitality and Restaurant Management majors, surprised that there wasn't any collaborative agreements with Kinesiology & Health Promotion but then again, this doesn't surprise me. The HRM people, even back in my day were on top of things, progressive, and well prepared. This is a reflection of what this facility has become. I am very pleased with the results and how clean everything is. I hope outsiders will take advantage of this place vs going to a local health club or YMCA.

There are several hammocks around the pool area-- PERFECT place for nap time ;). In the locker rooms, there are enough showers and free lockers for everyone to use (except during the early evenings when it's the most packed, the free lockers may be taken up). There are also free group classes like Zumba and yoga for all members of the BRIC! Have a great workout and put your sweat on!

This place is perfect for all ages. Customer service was great, all of the employees super nice and helpful. The food however, was not the best. The pizza was thin and hard. So if you're looking for a place to go have fun, this is the place for you. But be forewarned do not order the pizza at $25 each, it is awful!

    WARNING: SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS AT SKY ZONE COVINA…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but after what I witnessed at Sky Zone Covina on May 9th, I feel parents deserve to be aware of the serious safety concerns and lack of leadership at this location. My daughter and I are members at several trampoline parks due to our involvement in gymnastics, and we have generally had positive experiences elsewhere. When we arrived, we accidentally wore socks from another trampoline park that looked nearly identical to Sky Zone socks. Staff immediately approached us and informed us we needed official Sky Zone socks. That was completely understandable, and we purchased new socks right away without issue. The real concern came shortly afterward. My 6-year-old daughter noticed a teenage boy face down and unresponsive in the foam pit. I called out to him and quickly realized he was not responding and his head was partially buried. I immediately jumped into the foam pit to assist while my elderly father yelled for staff to help and requested someone call 911. What was deeply concerning was the complete lack of urgency from staff and management during what appeared to be a medical emergency. While I struggled alone in the foam pit trying to reposition and support a very large teenager, staff slowly walked over and just stood by. My father repeatedly asked for emergency assistance, yet management appeared more focused on the tone of his concern than the safety of the unconscious guest and took offense when called out on it. Thankfully, the teen eventually regained consciousness, after what seemed to have been a seizure, but the response from management, specifically Teresa, was extremely disappointing. When I later asked for corporate contact information, I was told she "didn't have it." I understand businesses have policies and liability concerns, but basic human compassion and emergency response should never be optional. Parents trust facilities like this with their children's safety, and after this experience, I no longer feel confident bringing my family here. Until Sky Zone Covina improves its emergency response training and leadership standards, I cannot recommend this location.

    Having failed to maintain the discipline to stay fit on my own a year after retirement, I noted…read moreGimme Crossfit's perfect 5-star review score and decided to schedule a visit. The first thing I thought upon entering was that this is by far the neatest gym I have ever been to. Second, I did not have to wait at all; Coach Yajen was very punctual. Third, I realized he was serious about my well-being when he started by asking what I was hoping to get out of signing up with his gym. Then he gave me a realistic outline of what I could expect from this type of training. Once I began going to classes, I saw that the coaches really enjoy what they do. They even invite members to join them for events outside the gym (such as indoor rock-climbing, pickleball, and Spartan races) for which they have no financial incentive. The community of members is so cheerful and supportive of one another that I did not feel out of place, even on my first day. Three months in, I am surprised that I could still regain strength and conditioning so significantly at my age. But what has truly amazed me is how Yajen continues to follow up. He uses objective measures, such as body composition scans and the Level Method criteria, to report my progress to me, in writing, every 1-2 months. He sends text and email messages reminding me to show up for these measurements. He checks in with me whenever I go too long without asking him any questions. He knows my weakness (poor eating habits) and periodically nudges me with specific suggestions to improve. I had been with several fitness trainers, and even another Crossfit gym, in the distant past. I can honestly say none of them had ever shown this level of dedication and integrity.

    Gimme Crossfit is more than a gym, as cliche as it may sound-- it's a family of individuals coming…read moretogether to accomplish greater health, strength, and push themselves beyond their limits. Yajen and Brittney are both excellent trainers who go above and beyond to ensure you're not only pushing yourself to your greatest potential, but maintaining good form and optimum safety to avoid injuries. I'm new to the CrossFit world, so it was important to me that I was well prepared to begin my fitness regime with safety at the forefront and coaches who were willing to answer any questions I may have regarding lifestyle, nutrition, and how I can achieve my goals successfully while sustaining them. Yajen and his team provide that and MORE. They utilize the Level method to measure your overall strength, a pretty holistic approach that ensure your building strength in all areas of the body while improving functionality (check it out on their website for a well-detailed description). Since beginning Crossfit a little over 3 months ago, my strength--flexibility--and endurance have all increased. My squat depth has improved beyond what I expected. As someone as stiff as myself, I appreciate that Yajen and his team place functionality at the forefront and explain in great detail how each workout is performed. They definitely live out the definition of "Trust the Process". Looking forward to participating in my first Spartan Race in the upcoming months-- a goal I didn't realize I'd have this soon. Oh, and above all-- working out here is FUN, come join us and have a great time! :D
