FIRST LOCATION:
PETER STRAUSS RANCH
We ventured off the beaten path and spent a day relaxing in nature for this hunt. If you’ve never been to Peter Strauss Ranch, you’re missing out! It’s beautiful!
From the official website: “This enchanting oak woodland has long been a source of dreams, visions, and memories. Inhabited for thousands of years by the Chumash people, this area became part of Rancho Las Virgenes after Spanish colonization. The original coast live oak, used as the marker in the 1881 land grant survey, still stands just west of the swimming pool. The upside-down letter “T” is still evident in the bark. The “vision of enchantment” continues at this site today with hiking, concerts, picnics, and art exhibits. Explore this peaceful refuge and create some memories of your own.”

The Holiday Hunt is ON! :D
Our Halloween Coffin Hunt was such a blast… with the help of the Los Angeles Federal Credit Union and More LA Than, we’re continuing our brand of family friendly L.A.-discoverin’ fun into Christmas and Hanukkah!
The Story
Mrs. Claus is burned out and goin’ ROGUE! She’s sick and tired of sitting home at the North Pole while Santa has all the fun, so this year she’s decided to come to LA on vacation and see the sights. She’s not really in the mood to give out presents but she’ll go back on the clock for THREE PEOPLE a day (ONLY THREE) *if* they follow instructions and complete some specific simple tasks first. She’s on vacation so she probably won’t give you the time of day otherwise.
Details
Six days. Three weekends. Twelve different locations. Eighteen festive gift bags… with six of them just a BIT more special than the rest!
Follow HiddenLA on Facebook for hints and clues to find a first location, and then complete the instructions that will lead you to Mrs. Claus. Keep in mind that she’s busy enjoying her vacation and will NOT do any gift giving unless you’ve already been to the first location and can provide her with the proof she requires.
We aren’t going to tell you exactly what your presents will be… because what’s the fun in that!? We *will* tell you that they might include movie tickets; activity/restaurant/shopping gift certificates, and general fun holiday items… you just won’t know until you open the package. In each hunt one prize package will be a grand prize, but we won’t tell you which one it is. Remember on Let’s Make A Deal where you had to pick between curtain number one, two and three? Yeah, it’s like that.
How To Play
1. Keep watching HiddenLA on Facebook for notices of clue reveals for the weekend.
2. Once a clue comes up… get on the moooove! (Hunt items won’t materialize until a clue is officially posted, so no need to start looking before then, even if a “hint” leaks out)
3. Smart phones are a major advantage, as is having a computer bound “lifeline” as additional clues may pop up on Facebook or Twitter until a location is found.
5. When a giftbag is claimed, the winner needs to take a photo of themselves with it and Mrs. Claus and upload it to Hidden LA’s Facebook page (or email to contact@hiddenLA.com) to verify.
6. No trespassing or breaking of any laws required or recommended. But play at your own risk!
7. We know that some of the same people like to play the game all the time, but we would like as many people as possible to participate and feel like they have a chance at prizes. Mrs. Claus is big on sharing. That said, if you win one day and still want to play along with a chance you can, and if it turns out that people have not shown up to the first clue within an hour or two despite hints, we will open the hunt up to everyone (whether you’ve earned a gift bag previously or not).
Want to donate prizes for our hunt, be involved or cover it? Please direct all press, publicity, or business related questions to contact@hiddenLA.com. Thanks! :)
UPDATE – Here’s That Hint You Were Promised!
We’re going to make this crazy hunt much easier now.
Are you ready!???
We’ve been slowly trickling images onto Facebook all week (see thumbnails below). Now watch the (surprisingly awesome!) video after the jump. If you *still* can’t find the location using a few simple key words that are being handed to ya on a silver platter… well, I’m sorry but you just don’t deserve to win a darn thing! We’re not gonna chauffeur ya there!!! :)

QUIZ – What Lies Beneath (Melody Land)
Wow. You guys are gooood! Full answer’s after the jump! :)
*******
Today’s little quiz takes us to Northridge. No hints this time… can you figure out what’s unique about this property?
Just to remind you, here’s how this little game goes… we’ll show you a spot on a google map (see below). We’re thinking of something notable that once happened or existed a stone’s throw from the point on that map. Within 24 hours we’ll give you the full details… but as always, we’re going to give you a fair amount of time to guess what we’re referring to first. We encourage you not to cheat by googling the address and if you know the answer right away please try not to announce it too quickly and ruin the game for the people who don’t.
CONTEST – Another Photo Scavenger Hunt!!! Wheeee!
***Please don’t submit existing photos. That’s just lazy cheating, people… NOT COOL!***
Since our Papa Cristo scavenger hunt in December was *so* much fun for everyone involved and the response was so incredible… we’ve decided to do another one! Woo hoo! We’ll give you more days to search this time… two whole weeks to complete this task. We are still compiling prizes (and taking donations) but one thing is for sure… the big winner may, just like last time, get a helicopter ride! And as before, we will start out with one photo but no hints… and although the contest isn’t time sensitive, people who find the location with no hints DO earn extra points. We’ll release hints gradually over time, but if you know the answer we request that you please DON’T blab it out. Part of the fun is making people look for it! (Thus the word “hunt.”) :D
Below is an image which references a landmark that is located *somewhere* in Los Angeles County. You need to go to the place it leads you to and take a staged photo (**without being destructive or disruptive in any way**). We will choose the best one… with points for creativity and humor, of course. Oh, and let’s keep ‘em PG rated please.
E-mail a digital jpeg of said image to contest@hiddenLA.com by noon on Sunday March 20th. :)
Okay, quit reading this already and get moving, people!

5 PAIRS: THE WIZ Sing-Along – Friday, March 4@8pm
Dir: Sidney Lumet, Scr: Joel Schumacher, 1978, USA, 134 min. Are you missing Michael? Yes?! Well, you’re in luck because he’s all over the first annual Fusion sing-along! Come and ease on down the road with Queen Diana, frisky Nipsy, and young Michael in the classic Sidney Lumet musical that made the Yellow Brick Road funky, turned the Munchkins into graffiti people and features Lena Horne as Glenda the Good Witch and Richard Pryor as “the ultimate, the common denominator, The Wiz.”
25 PAIRS: Behind the Scenes: PARIAH – Saturday, March 5@3pm
PARIAH – A Conversation with writer/director Dee Rees and producer Nekisa Cooper (Outfest and Fusion 2007) is an award-winning short film that screened at film festivals around the world. After years in development, PARIAH is now a feature-length film that had its world premiere at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. In this extended discussion with writer/director Dee Rees and producer Nekisa Cooper, learn about the trials, tribulations and triumphs of making PARIAH the feature and see exclusive clips from the film. Whether you’re a filmmaker, a fan of the short or new to it all (don’t worry, we’ll screen the short), you won’t want to miss this special event!
5 PAIRS: FIT – Saturday, March 5@8pm
Dir/Scr: Rikki Beadle-Blair, UK, 2009, 108 min. This charming film from Rikki Beadle-Blair takes an exuberant and funny look at gay and straight love among the new millennials. Everything from secret crushes to homophobic attitudes are revealed by the rambunctious students taking Drama and Dance from Loris. None of the teens are what they seem at first glance, with gay hearts lurking behind exteriors and straight kids expressing themselves in very queer ways.
FamilyFinds GIVEAWAY – The Perfect Valentine! (ENDED)
Congrats to the lucky winner Erika Larson!!!
Thanks to all of you who entered so enthusiastically, it was so great to read all of your comments. We received over 800 entries to our contest, the competition was FIERCE! Here’s Erika’s favorite romantic spot in Los Angeles:
“The top of the mountain on the Temescal Canyon hike. You can see for miles, north of malibu and south of the south bay, downtown Los Angeles. The view is breathtaking, and it’s so peaceful and quiet. It by far is the most romantic spot to spend with someone you love in Los Angeles.”

With Valentine’s Day on the horizon, hLA is collaborating with our buddies over at FamilyFinds this week to bring you the most romantic giveaway we’ve ever offered: the bestest Valentine’s Day date in LA! Okay, so you’ll still have to work on the relationship part of it, but we’re going to be hooking one lucky winner up with a fabulous evening of car service and a full-course menu with wine pairings at Patina Restaurant (you can view the amazing menu by scrolling down after the jump). BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE! The lucky winner will *also* get to choose between a complimentary bottle of Veuve Clicquot NV Brut Rose or a voucher for babysitting services so you can leave the munchkins at home without worry.
OPA! We have WINNERS!!!!
THEMEN!!!
- Ed and his friend Tugce found the mural before we gave any hints and were the first people to really utilize Papa Cristo… and had he not done that, a number of other contestants probably wouldn’t have found the location. Plus… the chicken stealing is FUNNY!
- Joanie had me fooled, she had the mural lady’s outfit so perfectly captured that I actually thought she worked there when I saw the photo. Her expression in the photo was perfect, and then add the Windex joke from My Big Fat Greek Wedding and *poof!* CONTEST MAGIC.
On top of getting dinner for two at Papa Cristo, Joanie and Ed both won the grand prizes: 3-person champagne helicopter rides with Channel Islands Helicopters… they’ll fly you over the Channel Islands National Park and you can even go whale watching from the sky!!! Wheeeee. Congrats you two.
Okay, I’ll announce more about the runner-up prizes that are being donated by Group 3 Aviation soon… promise.
HERE YA GO! – The Secret Mural Location Was…

WINNER – The Chosen Stomach Has Been Chosen!
Well, we found a winner to represent us in the Six Taste Bizarre Food Challenge. It’s a shame we could only pick one person but they might be offering the challenge again in the future if there’s enough interest so if you’d like to purchase tickets check out their site and get on their mailing list.
Trust me, the competition was fierce… and a little stomach churning for me. Deciding between the entries was seriously rough. You people are insane! In the end we had narrowed it down to two entrants, and we finally just picked the person who submitted first between them.
Her name is… Courtney Chai, who despite her girlish exterior is actually a hardcore devourer of everything from cobra blood to ant larvae tacos to snake skin to tarantulas… and trust me, she showed us plenty of proof.
“My dad is Chinese from Hong Kong, and my mom is a southern belle from Georgia. I grew up eating frogs legs, chicken feet, and thousand year old egg, as well as scrapple and grits. My backgrounds definitely gave me a taste for adventure. I have traveled around the world eating bizarre foods, including, among others (1) tarantula in Cambodia, (2) grasshopper tacos in Mexico and Washington D.C., (3) ant larvae in Mexico City, (3) veal brains at the French Laundry in Napa, (4) jellyfish in Hong Kong, and (5) snails in Portugal, Spain, and France.
“A few years ago I took a trip to Vietnam where I ate an entire snake in a small village outside of Hanoi. When I arrived at the restaurant, I was directed to a large cage of live snakes where I was asked to pick out my dinner. Then they took the live snake inside, drained its blood into a carafe of wine, and pulled out the snake’s still-beating heart to be swallowed whole along with a glass of snake blood wine. Following this aperitif, I was fed an eight course meal of snake soup, snake stir fried with vegetables, fried snake skin, snake fried rice, snake bone congee, snake eggrolls, etc.
“Although I am slight (a mere 5 feet, two inches, and 105 pounds), I can also eat a lot. I have been known in my group of friends to eat two dinners in a row. Accordingly, I am confident that I could clean my plate at every station at the Bizarre Food Challenge.”
Okay kiddo… you’re on! MAKE US PROUD! Meanwhile, if your stomachs are up for it, dear readers, some of our runners up are featured after the jump. :)
QUIZ – What Lies Beneath (Baldwin Hills Dam Break)
WOW. You guys are on the ball today! The full answer is after the jump. :)
************
Well, we were a bit busy last week so we fell a little behind on our quizzes… but we’ll try to make up for it now. :)
You regular readers should know how this game works by now… it all starts when we show you a spot on a google map (see below) and tell you that we’re thinking of a reason this particular area is notable. Then you start to guess what that reason might be. Within 24 hours we’ll give you the full details… but as always, you have a nice amount of time to guess what we’re referring to first, we encourage you not to cheat by googling the address and we also ask that if you know the answer right away please try not to announce it too quickly and ruin the game for those who might not.
And with that little refresher course… it’s guessing time! No hints today, either.

We’re heading a little outside of the city today and down to Long Beach! The rest of the game works the same as usual… below is a spot on a google map. Today we’re thinking of a specific *reason* that this location is notable (other than the general business it currently does every day). Within 24 hours we’ll give you the full details… but as usual, we’re going to give you a little time to guess what we’re referring to first. If you know the answer right away please try not to announce it too quickly and ruin the game for the people who don’t. No hints today, either!
Okay… here you go!

The first people to solve all four will win tickets to the event (a $60 value!). Only ONE pair of tickets per group please, because we want everyone to have a chance.

Be Mine, LA – A Valentine’s Cupcake From Us!
http://www.dailymotion.com/videox15gxc
With this site going from 3,000 Facebook fans to now over 100,000 in a matter of days… I can honestly say I’ve never felt so much Valentine’s Day love flowing through this city my life. It suddenly hit me this morning… OUR HIDDEN LOS ANGELES FRIENDS COULDN’T FIT IN THE ROSE BOWL. Yeah, that was about when I had a nervous breakdown, and wished I would get off my butt to get all of you to give me a dollar. :)
Anyhoo, in honor of Valentine’s Day and as a very sincere thank you to our local fans in particular for their support, the very fabulous Vincent at the (very hidden!) Bluebird Cafe in Culver City has kindly offered to help us spread a little love your way. During the rest of February, if you walk into the Bluebird Cafe and tell Vincent that HiddenLA sent you, he’ll give you a free cupcake. Naturally I hope you’ll stay and have other food and maybe a glass of wine or something, but either way. Free cupcake. From us. Try the red velvet.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Los Angeles!!! WE LOVE YOU! :D
