Decker Canyon Road in Malibu provides numerous vistas of the Santa Monica Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, but extreme caution is advised, especially as the road nears PCH (Pacific Coast Highway). It is a notoriously dangerous road, and the rusted chassis of cars that have gone over the side can still be seen. Philip Taylor Kramer, bassist with the rock band Iron Butterfly from 1974–1977, allegedly committed suicide by driving his van over the side along this route. Along its steep and winding path through the Santa Monica Mountains as an increasingly tight and twisting canyon road until its intersection with Potrero Road, where it becomes Westlake Boulevard.
