The surrounding area of dirt roads and extensive coverage allowed me to find areas of complete solitude yesterday. You just have to go on driveabout ( California version of Aussie walkabout ) . There were some cars in this area but widely scattered. You get some idea of the coverage. Cut out the sky due to haze and power poles. Yeah Ave I was a complete "Zoo" but my wife and I had a great time finding places where the maddening crowds weren't. Ave D wasn't as bad and this image was taken from a dirt track leading off a high power line road.

I went there on Saturday, but I might as well have gone to Disneyland instead. I agree with Paul, there are plenty of dirt roads to explore and get away from the crowds.
