Will post pictures and text when I have more cell service, probably in a couple of days. Awesome day today, hit 80° today. Did a 3.45 mile out and back to get 1.1 miles of NCT trail to avoid a 4.5 mile bike shuttle. Not sure if that was smart or not. As of 10:30 I was the only camper at the campground.
I'm home now so I can update the blog,
Started today on Snake Trail Rd - hiked maybe a quarter mile uphill before the trail so I didn't have to finish my bike shuttle up hill. Okay, I'm a lazy slug but that's the theme for today. I hiked for 6.35 miles before I came back to Wisco Rd and then biked back 4.5 miles back to my car. It was gorgeous amazing trail - I'll be back to this segment in the fall when the colors are at their peak.
Marengo Valley Overlook
Sally Girl Overlook
Juniper Rock Overlook - the best and yet no pictures. What was I thinking?
Of course I must include burls
Flowers, I love spring flowers
Once I got back to my car I drove down to Club Lake Rd and hiked .45 miles down a old forest road (snowmobile trail) to catch the trail and then did just over a mile out and back on the trail to avoid a 4.5 mile bike shuttle. Of course tomorrow I have to redo that .45 mile section to get back on the trail
Have a. Great day. Dad
ReplyDeleteFrom Mom, because she doesn't think Dad is telling you stuff he should tell you... and I mentioned NCT goes thru NY...."Hi Roger, I used to live in New York and used to enjoy my time there. There are lots of things to see in New York, and I think you would appreciate some of the things if you have the time to do it. Love, Mom." Keep having fun on the trail! I'm jealous. Cheryl
