One of my favorite places in OC has always been Gum Grove Park in Seal Beach, More of an undeveloped chunk of land/dumping ground/wetlands than a park, it backs up to Long Beach, LA County and the San Gaberial river. It Has traditionally been kind of sketchy and as kids we wern't really supposed to go up there unsupervised, but we would ride our bikes up there after school and build forts, bikeramps, treehouses, and sneak past the old barbwire and onto the Bixby property next to it. It is a glimpse of what this part of OC used to look like, 100 years ago. MAP
