I love this! I could drive Laurel, Nichols, Coldwater and Benedict Canyon blindfolded. Lived in the Hollywood Hills forn35 years and miss it every day.
@rdhorsey9081 The camera is mounted outside with my windows closed. So I could have music on. But I usually don't so I can pay attention navigating the route I planned for the videos.
For the ppl seen in traffic these are the streets and obstacles they have to endure daily as they go to & from home. Just a Thursday but to me I went sightseeing, how cool is that? And had a nice Sunday drive. Thanks for the ride along, again.
I used to live at the top of Stanley Hills Dr. So nice to revisit my neighborhood of nearly 30 years. Thx for sharing. So many memories are triggered. ❤
thank you. i probably would never have seen this place without this video. its a nice area. easy enough to get on a plane or drive there but i would not have a memory like this that i can watch in the future.
lol yah I had to edit this part out because the garbage truck was very slow and I couldn’t pass it 😃 thanks for watching ❤️so glad your enjoying my videos ❤️
Cousins bought a house above Mulholland and the view is spectacular! I love to watch the planes taking off and landing from BUR among other things. It's gorgeous up there and worth the hassle of the winding streets.
Very cool! I tried to do a Mulholland drive this past weekend. But the sky was too smokey and hazy. I'll attempt to do it again in a few days! Your cousins must love living up there! Thanks for watching! ❤
My favorite cut thru from the valley to downtown, along with Coldwater Canyon. Our son danced across our table at Moonshadows Malibu, stopping the whole house. He was 1 year old. He got a huge round of applause that we never intended, imagine his Mom's surprise. Dad still smiles....
Despite being wet and muddy in spots I am glad most these folks survived damage from the recent storms . Trash collection day is a bad time to be driving some of these alley like streets .
I was concerned I might get stuck during this drive because of the storm. But yes! Getting stuck behind the garbage truck wasn’t ideal 😩 I had to wait quite a bit since I couldn’t pass it on the narrow street.
If you go to the 30:47 mark in the video, you can see the house where the wonderland murders took place. It's the white house on the right with the tail end of a white car sticking out of the garage.
This brought back memories of the family vacation where we went up what seems to be this exact same drive but because we were lost and took a wrong turn. at least the sort of pre-2000 era homes even look weirdly recognizable too. yes, I suppose it was like at least an hour or more until we got back to wherever we were supposed to go.
Thank you for the tour 🎉 read about this place in rock n roll books ! Living in northern California is so different but I appreciate the differences! Excelsior!
Glad you enjoyed the tour! You should visit and drive around tour the hills yourself sometime! I use to live in SF and I visited the city last month. Is the haight not popular anymore? It was pretty empty when I passed through it. Thanks for watching!
@@omwpov yes I think height -ashbury is popular still but my friends and I went at there towards sun down & it s looks more rough ( around the edges ) . It was challenging to find a cab when the sun 🌞 goes down .
Relaxing, without interference from music or narration (although a little narration would have helped orient exactly where you were during the drive.) The streets sure are narrow!
Try riding a bike up into those hills. Don’t think so , at least I’m not in that kind of shape. People do walk on these roads but frankly, many of these properties are deceiving in size and offer quiet comfortable country (style) living with actual nature and wildlife surrounding you. The mud in the road is obviously from one of the many storms LA has gotten the last couple of years. The sheer magnitude of roads to repair from recent rain damage is incalculable but I see them out there trying to. The hills are always the last to get repaired. I drive up in these areas all the time. It’s actually quite beautiful, at least to drive through. Some hillside areas more than others but there are many across the LA region. I happen to live in one in the NE pocket near Pasadena. It’s beautiful. Moved here from NYC 20 years ago and I love it.
Just seen on a second look the Bohemia Cafe does London Fog which if I can find it anywhere is my go to hot drink. Delicious. That bagel looked amazing.
It's surreal to me knowing who drove up that road and what horrifying things happened up there" such a lovely place! Thanks for your time and dedication"!👍😎👍😎✨💜✨💜✨💜✨💜✨💜✨💜✨👌
For people who don't support a border wall with Mexico, most of these people who think that way have walls themselves. Nope, no desire to live there, travel there or vacation there but did enjoy your video, it's top notch. Thanks omw!
Hi, there are some migrants here in NYC. Do you have an extra room in your house, by any chance? I mean, since you don't believe in a border wall, would you volunteer to house any of those people?
@@tomcarl8021 since you probably don't believe in ab0rtion, will you be willing to adopt all the children who will be put up for adoption? Will you be willing to pay for all their needs?
This is a bit of a tidbit yes. Funnily enough, if you went back in time maybe 50 years - you may not see so much as a single wooden fence around those areas. (old photos and film might be here on YT) but once you get to a horrific mass-murder incident, 'the skippies' (think aggressive hobos dressed like hippies) then the violent 70s drug/porn incidents and finally: When it became highly valuable hot property where a whole lot of big Disney, radio execs, cashed-out boomers and you can't touch a place up there without proof of 1 million a year income type of place. That's when serious fences became very real walls. Yes, you may be told they are "retaining walls" but that doesn't explain why they're 7ft tall above the ground lol.
This is very interesting. I've seen some of these houses, I'm sure, splashed lavishly in the pages of Architectural Digest and the like. I always imagined that the roads (palm lined boulevards, in my imagination) leading to the mansions were equally lavish and picture-perfect. Reality is much more prosaic. While the view over Laurel Canyon is lovely and the lush plantings gorgeous, the road in front of my little anonymous midwestern house is, I think, wider and in better condition, and after reading the Wikipedia article about the Wonderland murders, I believe my neighbors are overall easier to live next to. After this little tour, I'm looking around my digs and counting my blessings! I appreciate this glimpse of Hollywood Hills. Thanks for filming! I'd thoroughly enjoy a narrated version also.
Yes! It's crazy to think these roads look horrible. But behind these gates and tall hedges there is a huge mansion that goes unnoticed! Thank you for watching!
2:02 there's the classic car at the start of every video! 2:36 that lime green car, what is it? Looks fancy 16:23 caught the Rolls hiding behind the white van That part from 34:15 to 34:50 is beautiful
@@omwpovwow, they look really cool. Btw I love the view at 7:14. That's a million dollar view right there. And 36:15 as well. Also, which areas exactly are we looking at, at 37:37?
Los Angeles is one of the few cities that has a mountain range running right through the middle of it. Due to its topography and desirabable location, the Hollywood Hills doesn't have unlimited land usage to work with. Space is at a premium here.. Thus, you won't see alot of setbacks nor sidewalks lining its hilly, narrow winding roads. Every major city is unique.
Great vid showing the Canyon warts n all! Curious to know what sort of vehicle you were driving considering the restricted nature of the roads? Thanks all the same.
Beautiful areas. I would never be able to live on a steep cliff like hill tho, all it takes is too much rain and your neighborhood could slide off the hill. I'd be afraid I'd wake up one day buried in a mudslide
Darn sight more pretty than where I live. These videos make me feel relaxed and happy 😊 On a separate note i think its odd buying an infamous house then getting mad at people stopping by it. Not ideal but par for the course 🤷♀️. Also the song Our House was based off a house in Laurel Canyon that David Nash and Joni Mitchell owned. I think thats sweet.
Ooo I didn't know that! That's pretty cool! Yes. agree it is odd people getting mad at that. They should know that would likely happen people stopping by!
o.k. my children. It's Graham Nash & David Crosby, (of Crosy, Stills & Nash fame), who were both Joni's boy-friends at one time. Neither of them owned that house. It was Joni's, fair and square, bought with her own hard-earned cash. Yours truly, a Baby Boomer and a Canadian!
I have to say two things; a nice overall shot, very real, without having to wait for a good day, but it also needs to be said about the places that I thought were best, both landscape-wise and geologically. There is an impressive possibility of landslides and, given the highly seismic area, many houses look like they are made of cardboard. I sincerely expected a more dignified, balanced, less speculative urbanization, given the very high price of building in these places. In the center of the valley the houses are very much in the shade, too close to the others and very exposed to the mud and the fury of tree debris. I hope this video will push various urban planners to take urgent and targeted measures.
Smooth drive and excellent camera. Laurel Canyon myth vs reality is quite sobering. Almost endless muddy roads and dumpsters do not quite live up to the hedonistic dream. 😊 Thanks for the ride. Great cafe at the end.
Thank You😊🥰 For The Updated New Vidéo🎬📽🎞🎥 Letting Us Know! Seeing👀 The Aftermath Of All That Rain🌧 The Impact..!! In The Hills🇺🇸 I Love Your Driving Neighborhoods🤩😁😍
As a child of the sixties, involved in the music scene, it breaks my heart to see this beautiful place that represented freedom FROM the establishment become an enclave OF the establishment. What was once "liberals" has evolved to progressives who have taken this beautiful place and made it a ward of the state. The democratic party has tasted the "good life" and embraced it to become a party of power, not deeds. The hypocrisy of the left has evolved from a foundation of peace and love into a foundation of power and lust. Look at ANY politician on the left and you will see a wealthy, power driven shadow of the past. Their care for the disenfranchised has become smoke and mirrors as they have a lust for power. This beautiful, beautiful paradise has become a lair for evil. Gavin Newsom is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Satan IS the great deceiver and has lured the power of the people into the power of the elite..........
Raised in a large home in the hills above Ciros on the Sunset Strip now my home is on the beach in Costa Rica with no sound of traffic, sirens, airplanes only the sound of birds singing and the waves gently coming ashore and a clean ocean breeze as I swing in my hammock. Which one would you prefer? 🌴😎🌴
After the rain last year, I had to go through Laurel Canyon from Studio City to Beverly Hills. Whatxa mess ! Rocks fallen down from both sides. Pot holes and broke up pavement all over the canyon. I actually blew a tire . This is always a mess after wet weather.
Yah the roads are terrible. The city needs to be more proactive on managing/maintaining these roads better. Good to hear Mulholland fully reopened last week.
I think it comes down to greed and corruption. California is among the highest taxed states in the USA. We unwittingly voted for higher gas tax with the 'promise' that the roads would be fixed with that tax money.
As many times as I have watched videos on Laurel Canyon, it amazes me that so many people just sorta park in the road - it would be a car thief’s wet dream
That certainly was a lot of garbage cans and I was surprised at the condition of the pavement but I guess everyone has to be somewhere, youtube is a learning tool. thumbs up on this one👍
I don't care a $hit what the haters say. This place is beautiful man. There's a REASON why people flocked to SoCal for decades, till now. Never been here. And to me, it almost makes you wanna cry what crazy Leftist Liberal policies have done to this state. Place reminds me of Greece in so many ways. Mudslides , earthquakes - well, there's a con to everything. I've lived in the geographically monotonous and boring Boston area my whole life and....woods , woods and more woods! Well, whoopdeedamndoo! Thanks for the video!
There are good and bad to every city. But I really do enjoy living here. Great weather is a big plus! Hope you get a chance to visit one day! Thanks for watching!
Lovely views. What looks very strange to European eyes is the absence of sidewalks. In Europe you would expect to be able walk around these streets. It seems very strange people are trapped in their homes unless they have a car.
Hello. Could you please make a video about the area in Los Angeles where, for example, singer Jenna Rain Simmons lives? I am very interested to see and learn more about this area. I would be very grateful to you.
I need to show you some beautiful mountains of TN! I'm sorry, but this is not very pretty. I'm not from this area, though. Thanks for showing us your drive. I know it's beautiful to those that live there.😊
So this is what the famous Laurel Canyon looks like. That would be a place to have an electric car with regenerative braking, otherwise you're getting your brakes hot every day, and wearing the transmission too.
Yah I can't imagine doing this drive everyday since I have an old car. Love the hills tho, definitely something reliable would be necessary! Thanks for watching!

Ooo those are nice drives! Thanks for watching
I'm 21 minutes in and i like it so far. I also like that there is no music to drown out the noise from rolling around these roads. Well done.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
How can you drive these roads and Not listen to any music!
@rdhorsey9081 The camera is mounted outside with my windows closed. So I could have music on. But I usually don't so I can pay attention navigating the route I planned for the videos.
I just LOVE LA 😍😍There is nothing like it. This brings back fond memories. Hoping things will change for the better.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
A lot of good music came out of laurel canyon back in the day.
Yes! It’s been cool learning more about its history. Thanks for watching
Well said ! Jim Morrison and love street !
Love the Doors and its music ❤
Really?
Crosby ,Stills & Nash ,and Young . Joni Mitchell as well
a real visit with narrow back streets and garbage cans and mudslide areas. thank you.
Yes, these residents have their designated trash collection day.
I do this drive every time I'[m in SoCal. Thanks for taking us with you!
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed the drive. Thank you for watching!
For the ppl seen in traffic these are the streets and obstacles they have to endure daily as they go to & from home. Just a Thursday but to me I went sightseeing, how cool is that? And had a nice Sunday drive. Thanks for the ride along, again.
Exactly all the relaxation none of the stress. OMW is doing a service to us
Glad that you enjoyed the drive. It was a nice day and pretty clear for some nice views. ❤
This takes me back to my youth when I lived in Laurel Canyon...on Lookout Mt, It still works for me!!!!!!! wonderful!!!!!
Must have been great to live up there! I’m sure you have some great memories!
I lived on Kirkwood drive very near the market and restaurelant closer to Sunset. 1970. When did you live on Lookout?
I lived on Wonderland Park Ave, from 1952 to 1969!
I used to live at the top of Stanley Hills Dr. So nice to revisit my neighborhood of nearly 30 years. Thx for sharing. So many memories are triggered. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it
were you in the biz??
I don’t know where Stanley Hills is, but I lived on Kirkwood Drive in 1970 waaay back when. This really brought memories back to me as well.
thank you. i probably would never have seen this place without this video. its a nice area.
easy enough to get on a plane or drive there but i would not have a memory like this that i can watch in the future.
Thank you for watching. My first time up in these hills. Found it interesting myself
Thank you for filming these. I love them! Also love how the garbage truck disappears at 31:36. LOL!

The narration was very good. So were the geographical descriptions and history tidbits.
Thank you so much! Appreciate it!
All I hear is quiet.
I would love to visit California.... Thanks for the your really enjoyed it..watching from Scotland 😁
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Scotland is on my list to visit one day!
awesome thank you
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks to your dedication, I have the privilege of visiting these places. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
Thank you very much for the ride, bro! Lots of memories come back to life! Had been there forty years ago - best time of my life!

Very interesting. Thank you so much. I need to be there.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!
And so Convenient!!
It just keeps going!
Vibes are perfect as always. 😊
Thank you 🙌😊
My favorite cut thru from the valley to downtown, along with Coldwater Canyon. Our son danced across our table at Moonshadows Malibu, stopping the whole house. He was 1 year old. He got a huge round of applause that we never intended, imagine his Mom's surprise. Dad still smiles....
Yah Laurel Canyon definitely is heavily used to cut thru. I do the same! Never been to Moonshadows. But heard of it.
it's swanked at sunset
Despite being wet and muddy in spots I am glad most these folks survived damage from the recent storms . Trash collection day is a bad time to be driving some of these alley like streets .

Beautiful place.
It really is!
No sidewalks, no bikes, no setbacks, no people. Interesting way to live.

Raised in a large home in the hills above Ciros on the Sunset Strip now my home is on the beach in Costa Rica with no sound of traffic, sirens, airplanes only the sound of birds singing and the waves gently coming ashore and a clean ocean breeze as I swing in my hammock. Which one would you prefer? 🌴😎🌴
Costa Rica on the beach must be amazing to live! I'll have to visit there one day to compare! Thanks for watching!
Some big cracks in the roads
yah. some maintenance is needed. Thanks for watching!
Heavy rains
This would have been more interesting looking through the windshield of a vintage car. A '37 Cord , Chrysler Airflow , a Marmon ...
Ooo that would be cool! Unfortunately I have a Honda. Thanks for watching!
After the rain last year, I had to go through Laurel Canyon from Studio City to Beverly Hills. Whatxa mess ! Rocks fallen down from both sides. Pot holes and broke up pavement all over the canyon. I actually blew a tire . This is always a mess after wet weather.
Yah the roads are terrible. The city needs to be more proactive on managing/maintaining these roads better. Good to hear Mulholland fully reopened last week.
Wish I could live in Laurel Canyon 😢
It's a nice area!
I have to drive this once a week to stay sane in this town
It's a quiet drive to get away from the busy noise below
Good video as usual. Just a question: Do you intend to make a video driving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas? Thanks a lot!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! I've considered doing one. Maybe I'll plan one soon!
i was in LA working on a Documentary Film and drove all through this area. Way too cramped and congested for me. I prefer Holmby Hills.
Awesome place to live, but why the streets looks so bad?
Good question! A lot of our streets need to be better maintained. Thanks for watching!
I think it comes down to greed and corruption. California is among the highest taxed states in the USA. We unwittingly voted for higher gas tax with the 'promise' that the roads would be fixed with that tax money.
@@JJFlores197 I mean, streets are great in all US, but Hollywood hills. That's just crazy.
As many times as I have watched videos on Laurel Canyon, it amazes me that so many people just sorta park in the road - it would be a car thief’s wet dream
Yah It's such a shock when i see a Rolls Royce parked on the street!
Typo. Dont you mean 10:45 am, not pm.?
oof! Yes!! Thank you for catching it! just changed it! ❤️
The Dude is abiding down there somewhere.
indeed. Thanks for watching!
😀👍
Thank you!
Roads are in horrible conditions
Yah they need maintenance. Thanks for watching!
Damn those bloody bin men and their trucks! 😁🚚 🇬🇧 🏴
Seriously! lol I had to wait a bit for the trucks to clear! 😭😂
😎
Thanks for watching
That certainly was a lot of garbage cans and I was surprised at the condition of the pavement but I guess everyone has to be somewhere, youtube is a learning tool. thumbs up on this one👍
duh, IT'S GARBAGE DAY like everywhere else in the USA.... sheesh!
Yah definitely bad timing driving on garbage day! Thanks for watching! ❤
Looks like the roads are in very bad condition ?
Yah. they need to really do some maintenance on these roads!

Glad you enjoyed the view Lisa!
I don't care a $hit what the haters say. This place is beautiful man. There's a REASON why people flocked to SoCal for decades, till now. Never been here. And to me, it almost makes you wanna cry what crazy Leftist Liberal policies have done to this state. Place reminds me of Greece in so many ways. Mudslides , earthquakes - well, there's a con to everything. I've lived in the geographically monotonous and boring Boston area my whole life and....woods , woods and more woods! Well, whoopdeedamndoo! Thanks for the video!
There are good and bad to every city. But I really do enjoy living here. Great weather is a big plus! Hope you get a chance to visit one day! Thanks for watching!
When they do road work in that neighborhood, it has to be a nightmare for the people who live there!
Seriously! Thanks for watching!
Lovely views. What looks very strange to European eyes is the absence of sidewalks. In Europe you would expect to be able walk around these streets. It seems very strange people are trapped in their homes unless they have a car.
People don't walk in this area. There aren't any stores or shops near by to walk to. Thanks for watching!
I get what you're saying. But I can assure you that the people who can afford these homes are not interested in walking around the streets.
It makes me feel sad when i think it's 60 years ago since the 60s era.
Time flies so fast!
Hello. Could you please make a video about the area in Los Angeles where, for example, singer Jenna Rain Simmons lives? I am very interested to see and learn more about this area. I would be very grateful to you.
Beautiful to be sure, but the real Lookout Mountain goes thru TN, GA, and ALA.
Ooo what's the terrain like over there? Thanks for watching!
@@omwpovgorgeous mountains. Trees and trees. Waterfalls. Rivers. Creeks. Lakes
A landscaper's nightmare.

I swear that camera lens is coated with psilocybin! 🎆😎
Ooo it would be a trippy drive! 😎🥰
They are driving way too fast! Beautiful place but too much traffic!
Yes a lot of traffic in LA
What a car-centric hell-scape and traffic prison. There is no place for a pedestrian to walk or a person on a bicycle to ride.
Thanks for watching!
I need to show you some beautiful mountains of TN! I'm sorry, but this is not very pretty. I'm not from this area, though. Thanks for showing us your drive. I know it's beautiful to those that live there.😊
Ooo I've never been to TN. I have no idea what the landscape of the state looks like. I'm sure it's beautiful! Thank you!
Been there, done that. Never again.
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Hi! How are you my asian friend 💜🥂
Hey! I'm doing good! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! ❤
@@omwpov god bless you 💜🥂🍾
🤍💜💛💙❤️
Thank you!
❤️@@omwpov❤️ you're welcome my friend🍕
So this is what the famous Laurel Canyon looks like.
That would be a place to have an electric car with regenerative braking, otherwise you're getting your brakes hot every day, and wearing the transmission too.
Yah I can't imagine doing this drive everyday since I have an old car. Love the hills tho, definitely something reliable would be necessary! Thanks for watching!
where is the Pub?
No pubs in the hills that I know of. All residential homes.
What a logistical nightmare it would be to repave most of these roads.
Yah that would be interesting to see!
