According to a trail user whose items were stolen, several cars and one horse rig was broken into in the middle of the day at the Hidden Falls trail head main parking lot yesterday, February 15, 2023. All items stolen were grabbed by breaking the door glass.
What was surprising was the boldness of the thieves. The kiosk attendant was present and there were several maintenance workers close by. Regardless, the thieves slipped out unnoticed.
Placer County Sheriff was called and the crimes were reported. Cameras will be checked and with luck they will catch the criminals.
Be aware that this type of crime usually comes in waves and we most likely will see break ins at other trail heads. Leave nothing of value in your vehicles when hiking or riding.
