In Episode 2.009, Donna Hayward and James Hurley have an intense conversation at what the former InTwinPeaks.com site dubbed a “Wooded Road.” You can find the film location in Franklin Canyon Park, which is a popular spot for many Twin Peaks locations from Season 2.

One thing I love about Twin Peaks is meeting other Bookhouse Boys and Gals who are just as passionate as me about the little things that make the show both wonderful and strange.
