The Weatherman

I really like the 12.6 mile RT hike from Waddell Beach to Berry Creek Falls. It has to be one of the most scenic hikes in the Bay Area. Saturday was a perfect day on the trail. It had rained that morning so everything had a very fresh, wet, green appearance. The banana slugs were in abundance and I saw some newts and 1 foot worm.

The water coming over the falls was low but it was still a beautiful scene…except for all of the other hikers congregating at the waterfall. The hike went smooth…just the normal aches from walking 12 miles. Nothing a large beer and soak in the neighbor’s hot tub couldn’t cure. The drive back was amazing…it was crystal clear and the ocean had big surf. I stopped at Pescadero to take some photos…speaking of photos, here are some.
