... the area was a pretty popular filming location for scores of Hollywood westerns back in the heyday of features as such - it has long since succumbed to "urban progress" - here's a few screen shots we borrowed from the link (clink on and enlarge the photos to view the captions)...
... 'Three Stooges Rock'...
... 'Center Rock'...
... 'Phineas'...
... don't know why, but lookin' at those old boulders buried in the middle of all that "urban sprawl" after defining the "wild west" landscape throughout all those films gives us the same feeling ya' get when ya' find out that the "big old bass" in the lake finally got hooked after all these years or that someone finally shot that "big old buck" that's been roaming the ridge forever... but, the same can be said for the "Pioneers" as well, who typically forge the way for civilization and in the process create a world that eventually makes them unnecessary and irrelevant...
