What an awesome weekend, on Saturday we biked 10.5 miles from Santa Monica to Venice Beach. We rode the bike path along the beach which passes through Santa Monica and the crazies on the Venice Board Walk. Sunday we parked at Playa del Rey Beach and road the bike path all the way down to Manhattan Beach......11.5 miles. I do not have any pics but I do have a cool video my wife made of the 2 rides.....enjoy.

Today's Hike - Eaton Canyon, Altadena, CA

Eaton Canyon is an awesome hike in Altadena, CA. From the 210, exit Altadena dr and head north to Eaton Canyon entrance. Tail head is at the end of the parking lot. From the trail head, head North through the canyon on the main trail. The main trail follows the the river/creek all the way to the canyon's end where you are greeted with huge water fall. Out and back it's just over 3 miles but there is other side trails you can take to add a little more mileage. Here are some links to there website.

Today's Hike - Mt. Tom - Glendale, CA

Today's hike took me to Mt. Tom near my apartment in Glendale, CA. This trail goes by many names, Mt. Tom, Las Flores Motorway or the "Sunshine Trail". There were sweeping views of downtown Glendale, Griffith Park, Burbank, Cherry Canyon & downtown LA.
