AVALON-BAXTER LOOP-PART OF THE SECRET STAIRS WALK

After a long week of camping in the Eastern Sierras, it's time to get back to the historical staircases walks. This time a different route.

Each walk gets better and better and the neighborhoods are truly amazing.

This week's adventure is the most challenging walk with the highest number of steps. Along the way we will have views of Downtown to Westwood, a walk in Elysian Park and the historic L.A. arts scene.

The secret stairs are based on this book and showcase staircases all over Los Angeles.
