Trail Guadalasca
Be careful on the south side of Guadalasca just before it connects with Hell Hill, there is a washed out portion of the trail on the left side hidden behind a bush. Keep to the right (up hill side) of the trail for that spot.

Trail Overlook Fire Road
I think this is the best way to get to backbone from the coast entrance.

I prefer heading down Backbone instead as that has more jumps and flow and is less rocky, with a nice water crossing at the end.
