Description
ANSWER: Nope, it really isn't Bryce Canyon. As you possibly suspected, it is none other than an odd-angled shot of one of the stairways leading from the Santa Monica Palisades down to the beach. Not exactly the best thing we've done…
KNOW YOUR CITY, NO.232 -- This didn't turn out exactly as planned. It was supposed to show eroded cliffs so everyone would think it was Bryce Canyon or something. It winds up with a bit of cliff. Much stairway. See Page 28, Part ll.
