Hollywood

Mt. Lee has the Hollywood sign and if you want to get to the sign 'up close and personal' there is a way.
HIKE
Its a 6 mile hike, 3 of which is a steady climb up. Once you enter Griffith park and start hiking the Hollywood Hills its like you are so far from civilization. Great views of LA and the Pacific ocean. Well worth the effort.
That was my Saturday morning treat.

I am glad you took the effort and shared the view, I have an idea that you will share more of the hike.

This is a cool shot! I've never seen this sign so close before, only from a distance. I like how you show how steep that hill really is.

This is a fine close up and reward for all your effort! I've never seen it this close before.
The hillside is impressive for its ruggedness and how steep it is.
