SUMMARY:Once Upon a Time In Hollywood Chatsworth
DESCRIPTION:On this hike\, we will cross paths with the famous and the infamous. The famous is the site of the Spahn Ranch movie set for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. The infamous is the site of the real Spahn Ranch. Along the way we’ll learn additional Chatsworth history. \nOur trek begins at the top of the Old Stagecoach Rd and ventures west and down through Twilight Canyon to Corriganville where Quentin Tarantino created the set for the Spahn Ranch in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. For those of you familiar with the park\, you know this isn’t the first movie filmed at Corriganville and we’ll be visiting some of the older movie and TV sites also. \nAfter a little site-seeing and a loop around Corriganville we’ll head up a hill to the 118 and cross under it using a wildlife corridor. From there we’ll take a seldom-used trail to the fork at the Hummingbird Trail and Rocky Peak Trails. Here\, we’ll find a rock house — a small room under a rock overhang. It was built as part of a movie set. Across the trail from the rock house is a natural cave above the trail. Rumor has it that an entire family lived there at one time. This a perfect spot for our snack break! \n[asa2_collection tpl=”Flat_box_horizontal” orderby=”rand” show_features=”no” show_description=”no” limit=”1″]6[/asa2_collection] \nWe continue our loop by heading down Rocky Peak Rd and catch the El Camino Nuevo which will bring us to the Spahn Ranch. Nowadays\, the ranch is basically nonexistent; its remnants are fully blended into a maze of trees\, shrubs and poison oak. We’ll take another snack break at the infamous Manson family cave. Immortalized in a 1969 Time magazine photo/piece about the clan\, the rock remains untouched\, and offers fans the chance to channel their inner Mansonite for a morbid photo op. \nOur return to the Old Stagecoach Rd will take us across the lands once claimed by Chatsworth homesteaders. \n[av_notification title=’Hike Rating’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue8c7′ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’orange’ border=” custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ av_uid=’av-n88i8k’ custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”]\nHike will be about 8 miles with 1\,900 ft total ascent and is rated DIFFICULT due to terrain. See the Hike Rating Guide\n[/av_notification] \n  \nEnjoy the history lessons below 🙂\n  \nThe Spahn Ranch\nThe ranch took its name from dairy farmer George Spahn\, who purchased the property in 1948. Many western-themed movies and television shows were filmed on the ranch\, including Duel in the Sun (1946) and television episodes of Bonanza\, The Lone Ranger\, and Zorro. It was also the filming location for the B-movie The Creeping Terror. \nThe Spahn Ranch is notorious for having been the primary residence of Charles Manson and his followers\, the “Manson Family\,” for much of 1968 and 1969. Spahn was 80 years old and living at the ranch when he allowed The Manson Family to move in\, rent-free\, in exchange for labor.A wildfire destroyed all of the Spahn Movie Ranch’s film sets and residential structures on September 26\, 1970. George Spahn died on September 22\, 1974\, and is buried in Eternal Valley Memorial Park in nearby Newhall\, California. \nHere we are February 2018; on the ranch and re-doing the iconic 1969 Time-Life photo.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCorriganville\nWe’ve been here many times. From 1937 to 1965 Corriganville Movie Ranch\, owned by stuntman Ray “Crash” Corrigan\, was a working film studio and movie ranch for outdoor location shooting. In 1949\, it opened to the public on weekends and holidays. \nWhy not just let Crash show you around the ranch on his DVD \n[asa2 tpl=”Movie” align=”center” ajax=”1″]B001O4C6S0[/asa2] \nIn 1965 Ray Corrigan sold the property to Bob Hope. A housing subdivision called Hopetown was developed and built on a parcel near the park entrance. In the late 1960s and early 1970s part of the site was used for motorcycle racing. In 1970 the ranch was swept by fire. In 1979 another fire destroyed virtually all of the remaining structures. \nIn 1988 The land was acquired by the City of Simi Valley for use as a regional park \nHere are videos of the “Jungle Jim Rock” and “Robin Hood Lake.”  To the right is Fort Apache \n[av_one_half first av_uid=’av-1qa17tg’] \n[av_video src=’http://youtu.be/G-MeZdkkeFo’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-1bqa6yc’ id=” custom_class=”] \n[/av_one_half] \n[av_one_half av_uid=’av-s3zo0k’] \n[av_video src=’http://youtu.be/YK7ajTUHHrY’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-lxwzdg’ id=” custom_class=”] \n[/av_one_half] \nThe structures have been torn down but here we are October 2018 crashing the set for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.\n[av_video src=’https://youtu.be/0F0lGfSnEyI’ mobile_image=” attachment=” attachment_size=” format=’16-9′ width=’16’ height=’9′ conditional_play=” av_uid=’av-nx8pn8′ id=” custom_class=”] \nEl Camino Nuevo\nMore appropriately known as the Chatsworth Grade Road it replaced the stagecoach route in 1895 and provided an easier and smoother route to transport goods. It was also able to accommodate motorized vehicles. We’ll be hiking along this old grade which was replaced by our familiar Old Santa Susana Pass in 1917. \n[av_notification title=’More to Follow’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue80f’ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’silver’ border=’solid’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ size=’large’ close_btn=” cookie_lifetime=’60’ custom_class=” av_uid=’av-q2xs38′ admin_preview_bg=”]\nCheck back here often as I will be adding more historical notes\, photos and videos over the next few days\n[/av_notification] \n[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=” av-desktop-hide=” av-medium-hide=” av-small-hide=” av-mini-hide=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” av_uid=’av-2bbqms’] \nDirections\nRSVP Here: https://www.meetup.com/localhikers/events/264413389/ \nFrom the 118 – Exit Rocky Peak Rd\, turn right on Santa Susana Rd.
