Sorry I haven't posted anything from on the trail recently. The good news is that I have been hiking in several new locales and have started to get those hikes posted on the site. The bad news (for posted blogs from onsite) is that they have all been outside of my cellphone coverage area. and somehow by the time I get home, get cleaned up and download GPS tracklogs and do my photo download routine blogging seems to get lost in the shuffle.
Anyway you can check out the new photos at: http://lcphoto.smugmug.com/HikingTheBayArea/TrailUpdates, Also check out the new pages I've added for Alum Rock Park and the partially refurbished pages for Almaden Lake Park.
Oh yeah, and get out and hike! It's been great weather for it, warm but with just the right touch of a chill in the air to keep you cool. Fall colors are starting to show in some places though many trees seem to be skipping the reds, yellows and golds and heading straight to browns (lack of rainfall this year to blame?). Keep an eye out for all the great seedpods that are on display. It never ceases to amaze me the variety of "seed containers" nature has came up with!
