OFFICIAL USC Trip Thread-- Who is going? What are your plans?

[mildone]

Patrick and others. I booked my flight but haven't made any accommodations yet. I live in Manasquan and have spent a lifetime of summer weekends at the beach so water isn't as big an attraction for me. What are your thoughts on staying in Hollywood? I'm not against your suggestions but was thinking Hollywood is close to a lot of fun stuff. Or is it too gritty/touristy for your taste?

I was in Hollywood once, when in CA on business. I had rented a Mustang Convertible and drove all over the place. It was pretty smoggy when I was there, so my eyes watered almost the whole time.

Hollywood was thoroughly unimpressive to me. And surprisingly dirty and dingy, as cities go. The traffic in that area was even worse than in central NJ.

Driving up and around some expensive areas in the hills overlooking the city was also a letdown, not what I was expecting at all. I guess you pay for views of the city through some smog, but the feel of the area was definitely not my thing. The expensive places to live here in NJ are way nicer than anything I saw in or around Hollywood.

Other than that, though, it was great. 😀

I'm a huge hiker.

I would've thought all the hiking would slim you down some. 😀

 

[mildone]

Please remind people to bring gifts and wear proper attire for the meet-and-greet with Victory Cat Marcus Aureliua.

What qualifies as proper attire?

I like to think I'm pretty far from being overweight!

Do we have a meeting spot and time? There are a couple of R Fund folks who said they would like to join the hike. We may have quite large group.

 

[PatrickRU92]

Yes, yes, yes, yes, LA, and yes, yes, yes, yes, yes in anticipation of other questions

I'll keep a running list here because I know I'll think of more every day

If you like being active hiking and biking . Rent a bike and rid on the beach trail stretches from Santa Monica to Palos Verdes, about 20 miles (so 40 miles RT if you want to do the whole thing). the San Gabriel mountains are incredible for hiking but recent fires might put the kibosh on those for this year I'm sad to say. There are good in city hikes in Griffith Park, Will Rogers St Park, Malibu

Speaking of Griffith Park the Observatory is an iconic LA building (you've seen it in many movies I'm sure) and clear weather willing the views of LA are very nice. The LA Zoo in Griffith is not as nice as San Diego's but its still nice

If you like walking through botanical gardens Huntington Gardens in Pasadena is definitely worth it, including more of the iconic roses than you've probably ever seen in one place

Museums. the big one is the Getty Center sits high up on a hill in Brentwood. Great architecture. I'm not a big art museum guy but if you are go to town. I think the Getty Villa in Malibu is better . Believe reservations needed for both. if you are staying near the Coliseum Science Center is great but the main attraction is the space shuttle which is awesome to see but its temporarily closed as they move it :(. People I know love the LACMA (again not a art guy !) .

I didn't agree much with mildones post about LA but hey different strokes, right? the one thing he's right about is Hollywood. Should be avoided with the notable exception of if you are a movie person seeing a flick at the famous Chinese Theater is an iconic LA experience and would recommend .

As far as avoiding things--downtown LA which is near USC. Quite honestly very little to do here.

Also for movie buff, the studio tours are generally very cool (I'm not including Universal which is a theme park). But Paramount, Warner Brothers and Sony tours were fun but havent been to these in a long time

I think the NFL is happening that weekend but if you can manage a tour of SoFi stadium I would highly recommend as its like nothing you've ever seen if you like stadiums.

Drive up the coast to Santa Barbara for a day trip on the Pacific Coast Highway, great views on the drive, Santa Barbara is mostly a lovely town

if you want beach town vibes, drive (not too far) to Manhattan Beach and take a stroll on the Strand. MB is my favorite LA beach town. Beach volleyball, countless 8 figure homes. Lot of athletes (both LA atheletes and others that live here in off season can be seen here Good food here too. The scenery here is impressive as well (yes my wife knows and accepts me)

if you like shopping of course Rodeo Dr in Beverly Hills is a favorite. Century City Mall is nice too

I saw someone mention going to Catalina. this is guaranteed to an all -day affair so you can't just pop in to check it out. The ferry takes a minimum of an hour each way and it can be a little rough. It is a cool place, very much not L.A-ish

If you like horses/thoroughbreds Santa Anita (home of Sea Biscuit) is a fun place to spend time

if you aren't afraid of some bohemian weirdness take a walk on the Venice Beach boardwalk (yes, it's perfectly safe) home to the well known muscle beach gym made popular by Arnold as well as the "White Man Can't Jump" basketball courts

Avoid star home tours at all costs. Pure rubbish

Food --I might not be the best person to ask since I have what is known as a sensitive palate, a.k.a I'm fussy AF a.k.a a real pain in the ass as George Carlin said. I do not like sushi which is like sacreligious here in LA so might want to ask some others about that. I have my favorites though which I can always share, but LA is freaking huge with more choices than you can possibly talk about. I generally enjoy eating in Pasadena, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Manhattan and Hermosa Beach, all great dining destinations. If you think you find something you like make reservations like NOW. The popular spots are exceedingly difficulty to get reservations for

Yes traffic sucks. Take into account driving times. avoid freeways at rush hours (duh) Waze is incredibly and eerily accurate with driving times.

Assume you need to reserve everything in advance so look up crap online well in advance

I'll add more as I think about it.

Regarding Catalina, you can make it a half day by taking the helicopter. The fast one is 12 minutes. The slower one is 15.

If you have the time, I highly recommend the Catalina trip, well worth it.

If you don’t have kids, a stroll of Venice Beach would be my suggestion. It’s a pretty enlightening experience and some of the best people watching out there.

If you have kids, highly recommend the Mr Brainwash Musuen. 60-90 minute trip tops and around all of the Beverly Hills landmarks.

MBW | Art Museum - Enter Through The Museum

Too many food options to mention. One of the best I’ve had is a Roy Choi taco truck.

Kogi BBQ Taco Truck & Catering | Korean BBQ To-Go

The most iconic Los Angeles and Orange County based taco truck that birthed the Korean Mexican taco movement and put the godfather of food trucks, Roy Choi, on the map.

For the record, I'm a fast hiker. I plan to be sitting in the middle of one of the O's while the slowpokes bring up the rear. 🤣 Looking forward to meeting you. I kept one of your hoops seats warm last year.

 

[Caliknight]

I have have never done that ! Also the site of the Boats and Hos

My family has a spot out there so I go a couple of times over the summer. It's really easy. Best option is the ones that fly out from near the Queen Mary. Parking lot right there. You could easily go out there, have lunch, walk around for an hour and fly back.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Catalina is beyond awesome....golfed there, drank there with Ed McMahon (well....kinda stayed at his house)...parasailed, stayed 3 days too long lol!

I was in Catalina for Labor Day Weekend this year. My brother and sister in law live in Newport Beach and we took his boat over. Phenomenal place. As a matter of fact, I’m going with those same people to the USC game.

I love Avalon. Great spot even if a little crowded. Got Wikiwhacked there a few times

Ticket prices coming down very nicely with USC’s losing streak. Will probably still wait until next week to grab tickets.

Patrick - I haven't read all 8 pages of this thread so forgive me if I'm missing something.

It looks like you are running a hike Friday morning at 8:30 AM. But it looks like you are doing the 6 mile one. Personally, I'm more interested in these:
- Innsdale Trailhead (6100 Innsdale Drive) 4.3 mile round trip to Hollywood sign and back
- Lake Hollywood Northgate (2900 Lake Hollywood Drive) 3 ½ mile hike around Lake Hollywood
I'm likely doing the Innsdale Trailhead Friday morning and the Lake Hollywood on Saturday morning. If you have some folks that feel, like me, that 6 miles is a little too strenuous or time consuming, send them my way for one of these other options.

I'm in for 4.3 miles and I was talking to @SF88 and I know he didn't want to do the 6 mile hike either

Any chance we can persuade you to do this one Friday morning instead? I was thinking 8 AM meetup since most people will be up early:

The Hollywood Sign via Innsdale Drive, Mulholland Highway, and Mount Lee Drive in Griffith Park

If you’re very close by they’re worth a quick stop. Not really worth going out of your way for imo.

As a little kid thought saber tooth tigers were cool.

honestly never been! seems cool though if you like Geology, its not something that will take much time I don't think

 

[PatrickRU92]

someone else reminded of the LA Farmers Market which is a cool place to visit, lots of food stalls of decent quality (Bobs coffee and donuts FTW). its next door to the Grove which is an upscale outdoor shopping area which is nice to walk through at least

I was going to mention the Grove/farmers market when responding about the tar pits. That would be a good two bird/one stone stop. Can walk between the two

OK I'm sure you'll have a great time doing that one. Since my hike is shorter and we're starting earlier, I probably won't see you up there. Hopefully we'll connect at the RU pre-party if you plan on going. Thanks to you and everyone else for all of the great information on this thread. I would not have thought to do a SoFi stadium tour but now I'm signed up for one. Definitely psyched to check it out.

Has an "official" post been posted? Folks from the RFund/Foundation said they want to join the hike.

And can you confirm, this is the trailhead directions (taken from All Trails Link)-the Brush Canyon Trail has another parking area in the Google link below):

"To get to the hike, drive up Beachwood Drive all the way until it ends and you'll see a dirt parking area at the bottom of the hike with a path leading up. You'll follow it up to the left."

Hey yes I put one up yesterday (new post) I'll link it for you here

Link to thread

and yes can confirm the trailhead locale there is correct! I think there are 2 small lots one a little closer. Even if you have to park on the street it doesn't add that much distance (IIRC when I did this last I parked on the street, and it was a saturday)
