Wouldn't it be faster just to go to the city limits of Hollyweird and
start there?

Nah...Hollywierd is actually about 25 miles south of the bottom of the
mountain. Lots and lots of "LA" north of Hollywierd. Burbank, Van Nuys,
San Fernando...

Take a look a an arial map of the area, from Gorman south.


"https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&client=firefox-aurora&q=photo+of+northern+LA+county&ie=UTF-8&ei=ApgYUIXRNYH3igLNrYCAAQ&ved=0CFkQ_AUoAg"

Check for Castaic and then Lebeck.

Its just a couple miles south of Lebec...right at that east/west bluff
line..zoom in and an ideal zone of heavy defensive lines and easy
crossing could be laid out right there about .75k south of Salt-Lick
trail. And from the ground..there is no good way to do a work around.
View a topo of that area. Its all up and down. Another place would be
just about 2k yrds below Pyramid Lake, but that doesnt cover Hiway 138.
Shrug But it could be figured in with another road block on the 14,
leaving the Antelope Vally, (Palmdale, Lancaster and the military base)
would be inside the Central Valley Republic. To the east..Death Valley.
Dont need a lot of security out there. Just some roaming patrols and air
strike capability..which is easy to do with the air base out in
Palmdale. So down by the lake may be a good alternative. Worst comes to
worst..blow the dam at Pyramid lake..and kill a million people in the LA
basin. And put them out of water. Blow the damn at Castaic as well..and
kill 5 million people. Might not be a bad insurance policy, eh wot?

Blow the aqueducts - they are easier to rebuild afterwards.


Why rebuild them
It would just restart the whole process again
