Solstice Hike

I went to Almaden Quicksilver for my (almost) annual solstice hike today. I like to search out signs of the coming spring at this time of the year, so I brought back a few pictures of flowers.

I took a slightly different route today. In the past when I have followed what I described as the “Randol Trail,” I believe I actually included a short leg of the Santa Isabel Trail that bypasses the mine on the actual Rando Trail. Today I took Randol and descended to the mine before dropping down to a creek and then ascending back up to join the main trail.
