EARLIER MEETUP LOCATION: Those out my way can meet me in Woodland Hills at 8:45 a.m. and take off from there in a car pool. Meet at the corner of Leonora Dr. and Ponce Avenue. Ponce Ave. is the first street east of Fallbrook. We can park on Ponce which is not in front of any homes. If car pooling, please help out the driver by contributing $10 for gas money. Drivers should ask for money upfront before departure, but make sure riders will be staying for lunch after if you are doing so.

DISTANCE: 5 miles
ELEVATION GAIN: 200′
TRAIL DESCRIPTION: Walkways throughout the gardens
THE PACE: Since the area is mostly flat, I would like to walk at a pace that would cover all the grounds in thee hours. We’re going to stay together, so no faster than the slowest person. But, please try to keep up with me. I will make stops occasionally at restrooms.
DURATION: I’d like to get back to the cars by 1:00 p.m. so, as an option, we can head out to a local restaurant (President Thai Restaurant)
498 S Rosemead Blvd, Pasadena.
