I go hiking up in Angeles National Forest (mountains you see snow capped behind Los Angeles) often and the views from those peaks (up to 10,064 feet at Mt Baldy) are spectacular, especially on clear days. From certain peaks, you have 360 views from the ocean to the southern Sierra Nevadas. You even get great views from the first couple turnouts in La Canada, about 20 miles from dtla.
