Can you see the ocean from Forest Lawn cemetery in Hollywood?

If there was an extraordinarily clear day, would it be possible from any vantage point in Forest Lawn cemetery (Hollywood Hills) to get a glimpse of the Pacific? I have no idea about the terrain there, so have to ask those that would know. Thanks.|||No. But it's not a matter of distance, it's a matter of geography. At the Hollywood Hills cemetary, you have a mountain range between you and the ocean. In fact, the Hollywood sign is right on the other side of the ridge. If you don't mind climbing a barbed wire fence, you can hike for 20 minutes up the side of Mount Lee, and be 50 feet from the actual sign, and see the ocean on a clear day.





The Griffith Observatory, which is even further from the ocean, has ocean vistas on clear (and not-so-clear) days. It just happens to be on the south side of the mountain range, while the cemetary is on the north side.|||Seeing as it's around 20 miles to the ocean. No.|||Is that "above ground" or "below ground" where the other residents are?|||No, you can't. That's pretty close to where I live and the closest beach is like 30+ minutes away.|||Not Even close its next to Burbank side of the mountain NOT hollywood.|||nope sorry the tree's are very tall|||no u cant see it cause i been there and it was sunny and clear.. but i couldnt see ocean|||no, it's on the wrong side of the mountains. but you might see the verdugo mountains or pasadena on a clear day.|||Tiger Woods can.|||No,buildings and mountains block that view.|||wd|||No (I've been there)
