Switzer Falls w/ Abby Fifer Mandell {Design Thinking}

  • Los Angeles, CA United States (map)

Waterfalls, sweeping mountain views, trees galore! What more could you ask for on this chill day hike with the coolest cat around - Abby Fifer Mandell, the Executive Director of the Brittingham Social Enterprise Lab.

Come spend your Sunday morning in the San Gabriels with us, there’s probably some water and at least one tree (and rumor has it your trip lad might just bring you some baked goods - cast your vote on banana bread vs chocolate chip cookies).
