Brand Peak hike NE from Brand Library 11-02-2010






This day was one of the few spectacular (clear) days in the basin. Here are pics from the summit towards the ocean. This was getting from 330P to 630P...this is a nice quick hike...the basic hike is .8 mile long and 1600 elevation gain/loss. The toyon berry now coming out quick with holiday red berries. Black flies still out at this late date. Noted an owl after sunset. Los Angeles is amazing to look at from above. Many loops can be done in the Verdugos. Several other trails occur near the library that are just as steep and a few miles more. The vegetation coming back a lot since the 2002 fire.
