Sharing Memories of the L.A. River
I expect you have traced the river back to its source, the confluence of Bell Creek and Calabasas Creek.
We are concerned with Calabasas Creek because it flows through some property we own and used to be a source of water for the Leonis ranch.
Almost all of Calabasas Creek, which starts from springs in the mountains above Calabasas, is either rechanneled or in underground conduits. We are trying to preserve in a natural state a small piece between Calabasas Road and the Ventura Freeway as a small nature park kept open for the public.
