Burbank Downhill

Single track in Verdugo Mountains above Burbank and Glendale in the San Fernando Valley, on the Bell Golf Course Side... It's steep, loose, fast, and fun. My wide angle camera makes it look faster than it is.
There are AMAZING views on this trail.
The top is 3600 feet, making it a 2600 foot climb. From the golf course, it can be done in a little over an hour. The fire road back down is a great as well.
This was filmed with a GoHore Wide... it works very well. The resolution is much better then YouTube shows, and it's very compact.

go up E Walnut Ave in Burbank through golf course to end of Stough Canyon Road where there is a parking lot and a gate.

hey OK so you go up behind the golf course in burbank. go to end of road. there is an obvious fire road. Go up. stay right at Y. Keep going up and you will find the trail. At first flat area at top where you can see all of burbank, you can hike up and take the bottom part of trail down, or keep going all the way up to the antannaes where the top of the trail is.

And what is your data source? Is this a peer reviewed data source? What is the precision and accuracy of the measurement device used, and can you provide a confidence interval for this measurement?

Just kidding. You're right, it's 3000 feet at the top tower. I misread one of those zeros.

please please please GIVE ME DIRECTIONS TO THIS PLACE..... mtbr forums gave me the wrong directions. how do i get here if i'm coming from studio city??

[HalebtsiAram]

go up the la tuna fireroad right off the 210 freeway. After 4-5 miles of pretty easy climbing, you'll hit a "T" intersection with a guardrail. Turn right. After a couple hundred feet, you'll see a little singletrack bit on the left. Go there, and just keep following this trail while criss-crossing the fireroad like in the video.

Thanks!

Dude that ride is sick. I was up there last Sunday and there was no way on some of those downhills especially that last part. I just turned 50 and I'd like to make it to 51. I'll stick to the road (mostly) but good on ya brother!
