Updates were shared and vigorous discussion followed.
From princeville to the end of the road, ke'e beach. This is where the kalalau trail starts. The vegetation, beaches and vistas are awesome here.
Some great beaches with a side trip toward the inlands.
Saw a humpback whale about 40 meters from the beach. This made for some spectacular swimming. The beach guards said they never saw one that close.
Down a steep trail to the beach. Cloudy skies, but great morning.
Gorgeous December day at Ano Nuevo. We were too late to get on a guided tour to the elephant seals, but we had a great day nonetheless. We'll be back here soon.
On this nice November Sunday we explored Los Trancos Open Space Preserve. We had driven past here many times, but never actually stopped and went out for a hike. The preserve is split by the San Andreas Fault, which is responsible for San Francisco's earth quakes. We followed the San Andreas Fault Trail. The interpretive guide, available at the trailhead, describes features in the terrain caused by the fault that are clearly visible today. The geological...
Nice quick hike with the family. We saw a coyote crossing the trail just behind us (see waypoint), but it was too fast to take a picture.
Heading from South Lake Tahoe to Calaveras Big Tree state park with the EveryTrail team.This route is very scenic, and the road is well-maintained, which makes for pleasant driving. I'd highly recommend this scenic route.
This morning the Bay Area was enveloped in clouds, and rain showers were predicted throughout the day. We decided to take a chance and it paid off in a big way: when we approached Mt Tam, we broke through the clouds, providing fantastic hiking conditions. There was another layer of clouds above us, so we didn't see the sun, but nonetheless it was a great day for a short hike with the...
On a beautiful Sunday afternoon Felix and i set out to follow kqed's guide to pescadero beach.
Awesome morning in NYC. Gorgeous weather after the last couple of day's rain.
We decided to head out a bit farther into the hill than our usual Dish hike. Felix and Lula walked most of the hike, while Victor enjoyed the views from the stroller. The trail is actually pretty steep, making pushing the stroller up on the gravel trail a good exercise. We turned around at the warning sign for Coyotes. A hiker showed us pictures he just took of a big coyote on the...
After watching US - England we headed to cool off in Half Moon Bay on this hot June day. We met up with Keren and Lior, and explored the beach and rocks. Since it was high tide we couldn't access the tidepools, but we did see some sea stars and crabs. This was a great afternoon out with the kids + friends.
A great family hike at Big Basin Redwoods State Park.
Great hike with Felix, 2 yrs 9 months. Nice, sunny day. We parked at the overflow parking b/c the main parking was full. Quite a walk for him, so I carried him on my shoulders for some stretches.
A nice flat hike with the family along Halls Valley Lake in Joseph D Grant County Park. The trail became a bit narrow towards the end, but we managed to squeeze the stroller through.
This run was totally unplanned.... I was actually hoping to have a relaxed preseident's day to recover from the previous 2 day's runs. But at Arthur's 2nd birthday party in the morning, the plan was formed to do yet another run, this time up scenic, but grueling Windy Hill with Nicolas and Jean-Marc.This run brought my weekend's total to about 34 km and over 1,000 meters of ascent and descent, which I...
