Turnbull Canyon Documentary DVD
$19.95
You can now own your copy of the famed Whittier documentary Turnbull Canyon: A Road Unwound by local filmmaker William Ohanesian!
“For most, it’s a wonderfully scenic hiking workout. For others, the hills are a secret hideaway to indulge in illicit thrills. Mountain bikers revel in high altitude adrenaline rushes, naturalists enjoy an ecological preserve of great variety, while others bask in the notoriety of historical dark rumors and real-life crimes.”
Turnbull Canyon: A Road Unwound is the first documentary to seriously look at the extraordinary range of experiences the road and canyon embody. The film examines the history and the mysteries, the beauty and the defacements, the myths and true-life crimes that have been woven into the Canyon’s reputation.
As such, the film is constructed as an oral history of the hills, with numerous anecdotes and remembrances told by those who live there, recreate there and patrol there. Our cinematic stroll through the scenic trails crosses paths with sheriff’s deputies, residents, hikers, Fire Dept. personnel, thrill seekers, naturalists, a descendant of native American canyon inhabitants, even a few artists, all of whom speak to the uniqueness of Turnbull Canyon as they know it.
