For the second of three planned walks this weekend, we chose Walk #29 from Secret Stairs: A Walking Guide to the Historic Staircases of Los Angeles, which winds through hilly areas of the Los Feliz district and culminates at the Griffith Observatory, which we reached just at sunset. Highlights include the Ennis House (a Frank Lloyd Wright design) and the Observatory. We ran across only a few people for most of the hike, but got to have one conversation with a follower of Southern California Weather Force, a meteorologist who predicts an “Ark Storm” hitting California sometime in the middle to second half of March.
A couple of turns and climbs inside Griffith Park brought us to the base of the Observatory and its crowd of visitors from all over the world.
