Big Sky - Extreme Work Edition

Big Sky Ranch (Lots of miles) - Tapo Canyon Road off the 118

Crew call at Big Sky Ranch. Day 23 of 24.

Looking towards set from the spot fondly known as Tree Lock-up. Off in the distance they are setting a building on fire.

Tarantula Cam

How many snakes can you spot in this picture?

Overlooking Big Sky. This is the road that is slowly eating away at my car.

Walking back to basecamp after wrap. The sun is still shining, yet I get to go home. That almost never happens and is very exciting to me.

Hike rating:

3 out of 5 Betty Whites due to work related hiking

Cahuenga Peak

Cahuenga Peak (2.9 miles) - Universal City off of Lake Hollywood Drive



Two houses for sale behind me. If anyone has recently won the lottery and would like to purchase two houses this would be your view.



Looking up with enthusiasm of a nice hike ahead. Plan didn't work out so well.



I soon ran into this guy. He seemed pissed. What's more terrifying than almost stepping on a pissed off rattlesnake while hiking alone in the woods? Turns out, not much.



Since I lack the super human ability to resist snake venom, I said goodbye to Chipper the Snake and promptly turned around and headed back down the mountain. Universal is off in the distance bringing back fond memories of night shoots at the chicken ranch, or watching the sun rise saturday morning and shine down on me with the sparkle of the hollywood dream.


Walking back to the car in my new shoes. They are super bright. Probably what angered Chipper.

Hike rating:



2 out of 5 nibblers due to venomous animals and lack of completion
