San Diego
Mission Trails Park is what San Diego used to be. Its 5,800 acres of mountains and river valley let people imagine a countryside that is untouched by modern life. And now, Mission Trails will add another piece of wilderness in the city, as one of biggest urban parks in the United States will get even bigger. http://www.kpbs.org/news/2012/dec/21/san-diegos-biggest-park-gets-even-bigger
