11/30 - Tilden
On the day before the forecast is for rain (at last) 9 of us braved a chilly morning (43 when we started hiking) and made the 3 mile loop from Inspiration Pt, out Meadow Tr to Wildcat Creek, and back via Curran Tr. It was a good walk and it was nice to have Polly and Bob back walking.

11/23 - Mullholland Ridge
There were just 5 of us on a bright November morning. We walked out the old road as far as the gate leading to the EBMUD tank on the western ridge, then looped around the knoll and took the short up-hill trail back to the road near the upper tanks. Just over 1.5 miles.
Lots to be thankful for as we approach the holiday...friends, lovely places to walk, that we have survived the trials of the last few years and so much more!

11/16 Fernandez Ranch
Six of us walked at Fernandez Ranch on a perfect day for hiking; cool in the shade, but warm in the sun. We went out Windmill Trail; up that nasty hill to the junction with Woodrat and Franklin Ridge trails, up again on Franklin Ridge and then returned on Woodland Tr, coming down by the windmill. There are patches of green along the edge of the trail and where the cows have grazed heavily. The ferns look refreshed from last week's rain. Lots of birds! 3.6 miles.
