Hike this weekend...

Hello Gang! DG and I were thinking of hiking this Sunday. We were thinking of either Mission Peak in Fremont or the PG&E trail in Rancho San Antonio in Los Altos. Are you folks interested in joining us? I checked the weather for Sunday and it's going to be a nice 64F. Mission Peak has a round trip of 6 miles but is very steep (should be a fantastic challenge). Rancho San Antonio's PG&E trail is 9 miles but a lot gentler (has lots of shady areas and varies in terrain). Neither is flat and both will reward you with beautiful scenery. Mission Peak tends to get crowded a lot faster so we have be to at the parking lot at around 7 a.m. . Rancho has a lot more parking available and can have spots available till 8:00 a.m. . Both hikes should take us anywhere from 2 to 3 hours. Take a jacket with you just in case.
If you are interested please call us or comment on this blog. Also, call us for directions! We would LOVE to have you join us.

This weekend should be fun.

  2. Salty that is an amazing Idea, I love it! It looks like you did your homework impeccably with the weather and all. So basically hubby and Baby and I need to leave here around 6ish? And I will call for directions, and to check on you guys.
    Today I lost half a pound on the scale, thanks for the support.

    Don't worry about the little one, we have a hiking Jogger for him.

    Go Gang Go.

  3. This is excellent 2 Tough! If you and your two babies can make it ;) then I don't see any excuses for Jambalaya boy and Princess. The only excuse would be for them to drag themselves that early from bed on a Sunday morning.
    I don't exactly know how well the hiking jogger will work on Mission Peak's terrain. We will have inclines greater than 70% at certain locations and it would take a good amount of focus not to lose balance. I think I am leaning more towards the Los Altos PG&E trail. Longer but a lot more pratical for everyone! I estimate it would take you around 45 minutes to get there. So leaving around 7ish would you get you there in plenty of time.
    I am really looking forward to this 2 Tough! I sure hope JB and P join as well. After all, I
    doubt we'll have that many weekends of good weather left in the season!
    Keep it up!
