The Celts have Stonehenge. The Egyptians
have their tombs. We don't know what is going on with Easter Island, but
for Baby Boomers and fans of the American West, among those stone temples
and altars of truth stands one that is ledge and boulders above the rest.
The Lone Ranger Rock is the famous towering backdrop used in countless
shoot-‘em-ups throughout the heyday of cowboy film-making during the '40s
and '50s. Unlike the mists of Avalon that hide their glory from the eyes of
mortal men, it is the cloud of construction and development that overshadow
this landmark today. What used to be way out west, even by Hollywood
production standards is now a 20-minute drive from downtown with convenient
off-ramps. Somewhat protected by the Santa Monica Mountain Conservancy,
this rough and primitive area is unique in its dramatic geological
formations. Take the kids, take a hike, take a canteen and remember old
Kimo Sabe. -- WEBSITE-TO-GO!
