Hi All, I was exploring tonight and found a Magnetic Hill. I'll give you directions to it.
Take the 210 West, Exit at Paxton Street.
Make a Right at the Stopsign.
Go to the end of Paxton Street.
Make a Left at the stopsign (can only go right or left).
Drive up past the trucking company and the first building you see on the street level is the key.
The building has 3 mailboxes in front of it and a huge driveway. Do a Uturn on the driveway and then when the coast is clear pull out onto the road. Stop completely, put the car in neutral and you'll coast to the stopsign uphill.
The address of the turnaround spot is 13020 Lopez Canyon, its less than 1/16th of a mile from the Paxton Stopsign.
I talked to a neighbor of mine who told me about another magnetic hill which is in Sunland.
This one is accessed by driving up Osborne Street, it is the one everyone here on this forum is talking about.
I've heard that the one off Osborne Street has an old Bar and a Cemetary, this makes sense.
The Bar is a hangout for Hells Angels and Sunriders (still), no KKK but definitely rowdy bikers.
My neighbor offered to show me the hill when he has time, if you know the directions I'd like to go NOW!
The problem I have is that I can only go when it's dark (at least for the next few weeks) so any directions would help me from getting lost/stranded.
I'll be documenting all this very soon. Keep checking back for the URL to the video.
