Black Mountain hike - July 6, 2006

The view out to the San Francisco Bay from various points on the trail

Above, a panorama of the Bay Area

I just love the dappled light and the trees

Yellow and green everywhere this time of year.

In and out of the trees

Wow, look at all of the flowers everywhere!

Here snakey, snakey...
