Santa Cruz: Best Time for Natual Bridges Monarch Trail??
Ive been to the Monarch Trail a few times but cant really get a hold of the best time to go. My SC friends say its between the end of February and March. When i call the Park they say its October and November. You guys have any idea? Thanks

ye be warned, I live very close to natural bridges, and I have to say to us "locals" (im actually just a ucsc student) there are a lot of shady bums/ people around there. be careful, especially around dusk!
