Although Cahuenga Peak is the highest point in Griffith Park, it is mostly overshadowed by its slightly smaller neighbor, Mt. Lee, with its many antennas and the famous billboard that once advertised real estate sales in the hills above Hollywood. In fact, until recently, Cahuenga Peak wasn't even part of the park, but was previously owned by the Howard Hughes Estate for over 60 years.

Awesome spot. No shade though so stay hydrated and protected from the sun. Winds could be nice.
