The Los Angeles, CA graticule is at latitude 34, longitude -118. It does not, of course, enclose the entire city of Los Angeles, much less the Los Angeles metropolitan area. It is debatably the most central graticule for Los Angeles, and includes downtown LA. Long Beach may make a good backup graticule, but it is primarily composed of ocean.

Notable Dates

5/24/08: The location for the first Saturday meetup is perfect in every way: it's on public land (Topanga State Park!), out in the mountains, but accessible by road (just off Mulholland Drive), and a relatively short drive for most residents of the city and the valley (unless you live in Lancaster...). Considering that much of our graticule is either inaccessible mountains or distant desert (unless you live in Lancaster), this is a fortunate hash indeed. Let's represent, LA! 4:00pm.
