The trail begins at Moulton Meadows Park in the Alta Vista neighborhood of Laguna Beach, California. This park has grassy fields, a dog park, and restrooms. There is street parking all along Balboa Road, adjoining the park. Nobody knows for sure how the car wreck got there. Was it driven off a cliff on purpose or for a prank? Perhaps a storm washed it down the mountainside. Nobody seems to know for sure. There were so many wildflowers in bloom all along the way. This was a perfect springtime hike in Orange County in March.
