Here are some other comments via Facebook…

If you are coming east on the 91, you should exit Van Buren. That’s before the closure. If you want to avoid any chance of hitting it from LA, exit Van Buren south and turn left on Jurupa.

Coming from the 215 that’s trickier. If you can make it to Mission Inn that’s good . Exit it and turn left and go up to Brockton and turn left. Up to Jurupa and turn right.

Coming from the west take 60 east just past the15 interchange and get off at Mission/ Van Buren Blvd and go SE. Road is expressway till it crosses the the river and tun left onto Jurupa Ave. Once under the railroad tracks bridge, park is on the left.

ABOUT THE PARK: Martha McLean Anza Narrows park contains picnic facilities, hiking, bicycle and equestrian trails.  The 40-acre park sits atop a shady bluff along the Santa Ana River with sweeping views of the river. The park was named for Martha McLean, an activist who worked with her friend Ruth Anderson to save the Santa Ana River from being channelized, as proposed by the US Army Corps of Engineers in the 1960s. The park is located at a section of the Santa Ana River referred to as the Anza Narrows, in reference to the crossing point where the Juan Bautista de Anza Expedition crossed the river in 1774 and 1776. A marker in the park commemorates the crossing, which is part of the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail that stretches across Southern California.

In 1775-76, Anza led more than 240 men, women and children on an overland journey across the frontier of New Spain to settle Alta California. Follow 1200 miles in the footsteps of this intrepid, multiethnic expedition, and explore the rich cultural history of communities from Nogales, Arizona, to San Francisco.

The 1,200-mile Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail commemorates, protects, marks, and interprets the route traveled by Anza and the colonists during the years 1775 and 1776 from Sonora, Mexico (New Spain), to settle Alta California and establish a mission and presidio at today’s San Francisco, California. The Anza Trail was designated a National Historic Trail by Congress in 1990 through an amendment to the National Trails System Act (16 U.S.C. 1241-51).
