Here's a 4 mile mostly level hike in the Ballona Wetlands and bluffs--the recently State-acquired preserve for birds, lizards and bunnies in the heart of paved-over L.A. (OK, elevation gain is 150 feet)

-----A NOTE ABOUT MY 6:30 PM HIKES: -----------

SOMETIMES I AM REALLY BUSY OR I AM STUCK IN TRAFFIC AND ARRIVE LATE. IF I AM NOT THERE AT 6:40, START THE HIKE WITHOUT ME! DON'T WAIT FOR ME! I WILL CATCH UP! THE HIKE ROUTE IS ALWAYS THE SAME; SEE THE MAP BELOW... (http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/8/e/2/highres_21330946.jpeg)
