Photo: Diane Edwardson, October 3, 2010. The Corralitas Pits of Doom substitute for the Grand Canyon for these hardy urban hikers. (Click on photo to enlarge.)Last weekend, I encountered two groups of tourists on the Corralitas Public Staircase. One group was following a route from Silver Lake resident, Charles Fleming's book, Secret Stairs, A Walking Guide to the Historic Staircases of Los Angeles.
The second group (pictured above), outfitted with backpacks and climbing poles, was training for the Grand Canyon.
