Mountains Chapter 8

Living in Los Angeles we get the amazing view of the Mountains which look extremely beautiful during Winter due to the snow that covers them up. The closes Mountains to Los Angeles as The San Gabriel Mountains. In the past there were a lot of gold digging due to the large amount of gold that was found there. Also railroads were also building there but they are no longer in service. You can find amazing hiking trails surrounding Los Angeles with amazing views.
