OLDER BUT BETTER: California’s oldest county park is also Orange County’s most popular. . . . Irvine Regional Park, created in 1897, drew a record 774,000 people last year to its zoo, oak-shaded picnic spots and trails. Originally known as “County Park,” it was eventually named for its donor, James Irvine. . . . The county’s least busy park? Ronald W. Caspers Wilderness Park, off Ortega Highway, where mountain lions have forced rangers to close it to children.
