If you're hiking on the Heintz Open Space Trail in Los Gatos and want to stop near the park's entrance and eat your lunch on the picnic table that's about half a mile up the path, better find another place to eat your food.
The wooden table has been vandalized and graffitied.
One of its benches, which is supposed to be attached, is also missing and the table is often turned over by vandals.

According to Vaurs, the Town of Los Gatos maintains the Heinz Open Space Trail and the Santa Rosa Open Space Trail. Both trails are accessible from Belgatos Park, located at end of Belgatos Rd, off Blossom Hill Road.
