Story:
Been a while since Roo(my Boxer dog) has been hiking as he doesn't like the heat so we came out for a quick jaunt through quick.
We headed across New Almaden which is an awesome trail, never crowded and beautiful views. I'd recently read about wasp galls so I was out looking for them today, I only had to check a few live oaks to find some. If you've never seen them take a look, the formations are really interesting and make for good close up photography.
After a while we got to prospect to start some vertical up to mine hill. Fortunately there's a lot of strategically placed picnic tables in quick so you're alywas able to stop and take a break after a decent climb.
At Bull Run I spotted a golden eagle I think... see picture. We left when a large group showed up.
Then headed around to the old furnace and headed out down Great Eastern which is a great little single track.
All in all a nice fall hike.
