I’ve added five new ones since my last update.
- Castle Rock State Park — This is the Saratoga Gap Trail route to the campground and back.
- Flag Hill Loop, Sunol Wilderness — Find out why this steep climb is actually a kid-friendly hike.
- Waterfall tour of Uvas Canyon — hey, it’s where I learned how to take those snazzy waterfall-blur pictures.
- Wonders of Wildlife at Point Lobos State Reserve — how many ways can you call a place drop-dead gorgeous?
- Top Wildlife Watching Sites in the San Francisco Bay Area — A bundle of four guides: Tomales Point, Marin Headlands, Año Nuevo and Point Lobos. UPDATE: Check out Tom Clifton’s Birder’s Guide to Point Lobos.
I’m going to start moving on to trails on this end of the country pretty soon, but I may have a few more Bay Area guides in me. I don’t feel like I know the local trails well enough to write about them for money just yet.
Oh man! Not only do you beat me at creating a Point Lobos Guide, but you use my photos in the process. ;^p
It’s a nice guide. I think I am going to try to come up with three five mile hikes that will show you the best of Point Lobos (and maybe save you the entrance fee).
Tom: sorry about that, now I feel like a class A heel, especially since your Dad works there and all.
Everytrail’s guide mechanism just lets authors grab any nearby photos — I’ve got dozens of my own and there was no need to use yours.
Tom C – Everytrail now lets you opt out of allowing your photographs from being used in the commercial guides ..
