    Trail:  Clyde Canyon, Lower Loop, and Charmichael Road Trail Loop

  
  

  

  
  

  Length 3.7 mi   Elevation gain 633 ft   Route type Loop

  Description:  Enjoy this 3.7-mile loop trail near Malibu, California. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 1 h 43 min to complete. This is a popular trail for birding, hiking, and running, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash.

  The Clyde Canyon, Lower Loop, and Charmichael Road Trail Loop meanders through oak woodland. There are some rocky, uneven stretches of this trail. As you hike, you'll pass through a few bushes and enjoy expansive ocean views. On a clear day, the high vantage points provide breathtaking views both up and down the coast. The trail also overlooks Zuma Beach. Few trees, occasional overgrowth covering trail and NO water crossings!

  Dress for cooler weather in the morning, warming up while on the trail.

  Registration: There is no cost for this hike.  But you MUST include the name of your emergency contact and their phone number. And that same information for any guests you invite!!

  • 2pm

  • Dorothy Chandler Pavilion 

  • 135 North Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90012

  Described as “an opera in three images,” Ainadamar traces the life of Spanish poet and playwright Federico García Lorca as recounted by his muse and longtime collaborator, actress Margarita Xirgu.

  Ana María Martínez takes center stage as Lorca’s muse Margarita Xirgu, recounting the poet’s life and his last days in the Spanish Civil War. Margarita Xirgu has spent half her acting career in exile, mourning Federico García Lorca, the dear friend whom she couldn’t convince to flee Franco’s reign of terror. Lorca was once on the verge of writing his way into a new Golden Age in Spain. But dictators have no use for poets. Daniela Mack steps into the role of Federico García Lorca, the man whose pen proved just as dangerous as any pistol.

  Resident Conductor Lina González-Granados leads this major company premiere. Grammy winner Osvaldo Golijov’s dramatic, flamenco-inspired score meets a poignant libretto by David Henry Hwang in what the Los Angeles Times calls “one of the most moving and meaningful operas of our time.”
