Hello everyone, it's Charles from http://www.intwinpeaks.com/ . I'm starting to do some preliminary research for a Twin Peaks locations tour in California that I'm planning for next year. I'd really love to map out as many of these locations as possible before I get out there. Does anyone here have a good idea of where any of these California locations are?... 1. Wally's Hideout 2. Lydecker Veterinary Clinic 3. The Gazebo Park 4. Dr. Jacoby's Office 5. The Power Plant 6. Glastonberry Grove 7. Johnson's Residence 8. Gentleman Jim's (or, The Twin Peaks General Store) 9. One Eyed Jacks 10. The Hayward House 11. Jaques' Cabin 12. Jaques' Apartment 13. Log Lady's Cabin 14. Dead Dog Farm 15. Calhoun Memorial Hospital 16. Harold Smith's House and Mrs. Tremond's 17. The Timber Falls Motel 18. Windom Earle's Cabin 19. Horne's Department Store 20. The Bank Any and all advice would be so helpful and much appreciated. Thanks! Charles

The purveyors of this site have some pictures online for some of the locations you mention. http://www.twinpeaksgazette.com/tp/seriesfwwm/visits.php Maybe they could tell you more about where they found these.

Big Ed's and Dr. Lydecker's are on the same property. (The Rock Store on Mulholland Hwy in Malibu.)
The Johnsons and the Gazebo also right next to eachother and both Jacques' apartment and the Timber Falls motel are across the way. I don't recall the address, but you can see the gazebo from the road. That's not helpful, is it?
Harold Smith's and the Log Lady's cabin are nearby, but hidden from the road.
If I recall, the Rock Path after Leland's death, James and Donna's and Audrey and Jack's picnic spot, the Where is Bob Now ditch, Briggs found by Hawk, Glastonbury Grove, are all in Malibu Creek State Park. Jacques' cabin is nowhere near these other sites, but I hear it's still there.

That's all very helpful, actually. Thanks! Malibu, huh...who would've thought? It's so weird that so unlike the pilot, suddenly in episode one, we're confronted with non-stop sunshine for the rest of the series. Funny. Thanks again. That's a great start.

Believe me, that's something I really noticed the first time around, watching in Seattle (and again this time). In all the daytime Lake scenes by the gazebo the weather is oddly nice, and the trees all have leaves on them, not what you'd see in Washington in Feb & March.

Especially the gazebo/lake scenes! Even the funeral scene is full of sunshine and eucalyptus trees, so California. I've got to admit, that's one of the reasons why I've always been partial to the pilot...it just has that mysterious, dark, misty, brooding Pacific Northwest feel that I love so much...Plus, it's an amazing film in its own right. As far as I'm concerned, it really doesn't get any better than the pilot.

And the Bronson Caves (the Bat Cave or Owl Cave) are off Canyon Drive to Griffith Park. I saw the exterior of One Eyed Jacks from a bridge. It's someone's home. Did they do any of the interior there?

I just skipped through FWWM looking for a specific scene, and landed on the first scene that Laura appears in. She comes out of her house and walks down the street and meets Donna. Even though it's supposed to be February all the big deciduous trees have leaves, and the sun is high in the sky, indicating it was filmed in the summer.

Yes, despite the fact that we're supposed to be witnessing the seven days prior to February 24th (in a rather wet and cloudy region of the country, at least in winter), the entire movie was filmed in the middle of the summer of '91 and therefore completely sun-drenched.

I'm sure filming in summer was necessitated by needing to use the schools for filming. Besides that having nice weather makes everything easier for everybody.

in retrospect, I can totally see the difference in terms of weather and lighting from the pilot to the series, but i never noticed them originally. I still think that they did a damn good job of finding locations that matched the pilot as much as possible. I've lived in the LA area my whole life, and I sometimes marvel when watching the show that most of it was shot no more than 45 minutes to an hour from my house...it really seems like another place to me. Of course, the generous amounts of stock footage shot in Washington during the Pilot used in the series helped a lot.

I agree with you completely, they did an incredible job finding the right locations in California---it's just too bad about the weather. I too, didn't notice it the first time around. Not at all. Locations are such fascinating subjects. I've got to say, that's why I became so obsessed with these locations and created my website –When I first went to see the filming locations in WA, I got really, really depressed by how much had changed or just how things were related, like the sheriff's department and the sawmill....strange, because obviously, I knew that Twin Peaks wasn't a real town and that the filming spots were dispersed throughout the area. I don't know, it just struck a chord when everything didn't match up to my fantasy of it all. Now, of course, I can't get enough. It's even more incredible to me that they were able to create this complex, fully realized town out of a very few well chosen locations in WA and CA. Charles
