Where is your favorite place to walk?
“I like going for a walk on Ventura Beach. There’s good lunch places and it’s like a small-town area near the water.”
Elias Daniel, 22, Cal State Fullerton psychology graduate
“I’m going to go with the beaches, and I’ll say Point Dume in Malibu—walking down Point Dume and taking the stairs on the more rugged part of the point. And then doing a little boogie boarding, a little surfing and a little strolling—very masculine strolling, of course.”
Devan McGivern, 22, Cal State Fullerton business management graduate
“I’ll say Griffith Park in L.A. There’s an Observatory trail that stops halfway and you have to scamper up to the Observatory. The park has a very interesting ecosystem and its own environment. It’s always buzzing—there’s always a party or a community event going on.”
Lincoln Charles, 22, Cal State Fullerton political science graduate
“I really like the Blue Trail in the woods behind Chaminade. There are a lot of banana slugs, and people in the neighborhood walk their dogs there. It’s kind of a secret spot.”
Thure Sullivan, 22, University of Denver music recording major
“There’s a beach trail in Southern California that I walk from San Clemente Pier down to San Clemente State Beach. I just like walking on the beach in the morning or at sunset. I usually run into people I know, so that’s fun.”
Emily Anderson, 23, University of Denver psychology major
“The Tillamook Forest trail, near Portland. There are not many people at the more difficult heights. At the top there’s a really good view. Past the forest is the Tillamook community where I’m from. The ice cream is just down the road, and you can visit the creamery and everything. You smell the cows before you see them, but there’s plenty of them.”
Amber Dockter, 41, human resources
