Vermont Golf 2008-062008-06-21 LAist: Dear LAist: Is this the Disneyfication of Griffith ParkEarly indicators suggest that all of the Parks Vermont and Western Canyons have been turned over to Disney and the eviction of park users has already begun. Today, most of the diagonal public parking spaces in Vermont Canyon near its trailheads are coned off. The oak-shaded picnic area opposite the Greek at the corner of Commonwealth Canyon and Vermont Canyon is closed and locked. The gate to the large picnic/play lawn north of the Greek is drawn and locked. Walking/hiking/running the trails, or beating the heat in the picnic areas is a no-go from now until Sunday. Not known is whether or when Fern Dells picnic areas, the Vermont Canyon tennis courts and Vermont Canyons Roosevelt golf course will be closed to users and what the impact on cyclists will be. laist.com - Griffith park public park colonel griffith disney pixar griffithe park master plan observatory greek theatre melendez

I suppose my record breaking season for the Trek for Health with have to wait for another year.
