Ballona Wetlands and City lights viewing, dinner at Alejos

NEW HIKE STARTING LOCATION:
DUE TO PARKING OVER-USE AT THE OLD TRAILHEAD, I HAVE MOVED THE MEETUP SPOT TO THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF LINCOLN BLVD AND 83RD STREET IN WESTCHESTER, NEAR THE ALEJO'S RESTAURANT

THERE ARE TWO HIKE ROUTES, EAST OF AND WEST OF LINCOLN BLVD=, DEPENDING ON THE HIKE-LEADER'S WHIMS

IT IS: A 4 mile, mostly level hike in the Ballona Wetlands and bluffs--A preserve for birds, lizards and bunnies in the heart of paved-over L.A. (OK, elevation gain is 150 feet)
