Runyon Canyon is a recreational area in which many activities can be done. It is a place for hiking, picnicking, small concerts, and more. It is a highly popular location as it is home of the infamous Hollywood sign hike. When I visited this spot it was crawling with people. Already this is very different then the pines. The pines tend to be a quieter space will hammocks and students doing work. The pines also only haver one main focal species while Runyon Canyon had an abundance. Runyon Canyon was also a much dryer landscape as it sees much less rain than the Redstone Pines. Along with this, the Redstone Pines are of course a much smaller area than Runyon Canyon and the pines are a flat surface while Runyon canyon has mountains. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I had to chose a place from my home town to compare the Redstone Pines to I wasn&#8217;t sure where to go.
