See all- ASTRO LOOP-part of the hidden StaircasesNeeds location
Let's do this again! This time a different route.
A couple of weeks ago we did the Silverlake Circles in L.A.
Each walk gets better and better and the neighborhoods are truly amazing. We will be walking along a few staircases, famous houses including Judy Garlands, beautiful gardens and homes with cool architecture. There is so much history in Silverlake especially in the movie industry.
We will do a loop and start/end at the same location.
Check out some of our past secret stairs walks

- ETIWANDA & CUCAMONGA PEAKSIcehouse Canyon Trailhead, Mount Baldy, CA
I will do my best to make sure we all summit. I expect the group to stay together. This will not be a fast-paced hike, it's mostly for distance and elevation gain. If you do not wish to go at my moderate pace or wait for the group then please hike on your own time.
You are free to turn around at any time as long as you inform me and know your way back. Also, if this heat wave continues and I feel it is too hot to proceed with the hike, I will make the decision for the group to turn around and head back to the parking lot.
