This is a red-level ride that includes some spectacular views along
PCH and a nice climb through the Santa Monica Mountains. The climb up
Mulholland from Leo Carillo State Beach is one of the prettiest
climbs. The 1670 foot climb includes three deep switchbacks so you
can judge where you are. This one is tougher than
Encinal Canyon because you loose all of the
altitude you gained on the first hill. In the summer this can be a
very hot climb. Want a bigger climb? Try turning at Yerba Buena.
This ride starts at the Bank of America parking lot.
