This has been in my backyard, so to speak, for 24 years and yet this was the first time I ever went for a hike. For those not familiar, this is the Griffith Observatory just north of downtown Los Angeles. It turned out to be a busy day as I had completely forgotten it was Valentine's Day (don't tell my girlfriend) and there were many happy couples and tourists.
