Here it is. Doubtless one of the favorite locations in all of BTTF locationdom. Here it is, endless asphalt and driveways for your exploration. And if you come early (or late!) enough, you yourself can drive back in time... sort of...

As we learn from Doc Brown's monologue, "Old Man" Peabody once owned all of this, and in 1955 this was once the "Twin Pines Ranch," (and after Marty runs one over in 55 and we come back to the mall in the end of the movie, it's the Lone pine mall.)

This is a location you MUST visit if you are a BTTF fan, and it's one you really have to visit to get a sense of how the chase scenes work out. There's not too much to tell that's terribly interesting, though I have been here several times and it's always a hoot, as we skateboard in the steps of Marty McFly and race our cars through the parking lot -(though I don't suggest you do it, or risk arrest.. as I was threatened with last time..).

It hasn't changed too terribly much in the last few years, but sometime in the mid-90s it underwent a drastic facelift. And, as is wont to happen in a mall, the tenents come and go. In case you hadn't guessed, there never was a photo-stand in the parking lot. Just make sure you enter from Colima Road, and enter the driveway on the SOUTH side of the mall, the one between TGI Fridays and the Soup Plantation.

Tip: Stop at TGI friday's and have some lunch, their outdoor patio gives you a great view of the location!

While we haven't provided you with much witty dialogue or many entertaining stories, we HAVE provided you with a TON of photos and screenshots of this location so that you can have a lot of reference when you visit! Just scroll down for the photos!

Here's a handy reference map that was created years ago by our friends at the former exkren.com. UPDATE '07: While working on our PDF guide we created several vector-image maps of our own! Ours routes out the delorean's course and sets this all in motion for everyone! An online version is at the bottom of this page!! Scroll down!!

Doc's truck was parked a space over (in most scenes) from this light-pole. For the shot where Marty zooms between the truck and this pole to go to 1955, they moved the truck further away.

Marty and Doc would have been standing right on the center line about 1 space to the right of the white car.


here's one from the archives... 2004/2005

The Mall as of January 2005. Oviously, we don't have a crane to put our camera on so we don't get the same shots, And the TGI friday's wouldn't let us on their roof, so this is what you get - for now!








Expect more in the future, we like to keep our photos up-to-date!
