***September 3
– A very short hike at Quicksilver. From Mockingbird Hill entrance up past the mine site to the Randol Trail, where I turned right and hiked a short distance to a spot where I wanted to take some picture.
***September 5
– The Randol, Prospect #3, Bull Run, Mine Hill, Deep Gulch loop – in extremely hot weather during the middle of the day.
***September 6
– Urban hike on the Los Gatos Creek trail – out to the bridge at Camden.
***September 11
– Slightly different Almaden route today. From Mockingbird hill out on New Almaden trail and up Prospect #3 to the Randol Trail junction. Left turn and then down past the Randol Mine to return to the start. Things are really drying out and many trees are starting to drop leaves in earnest.
***September 18
– Slow hike (lots of photography) at Almaden Quicksilver. Up Mine Hill to almost the top then back via English Camp and Deep Gulch. The first rain storm of the season was starting to approach.
***September 19
– Another hike up English Camp to the summit of Mine Hill trail then back via Deep Gulch. Despite rain in the valley it was a dry hike – but cool.
***September 25
– First day of a weekend in the Sierra. I hiked to Elizabeth Lake and stayed at Tuolumne Meadows.
***September 26
– Spent most of the day driving and photographing fall colors in the eastern Sierra. Started at Tioga Pass, then visited Saddlebag Lake, Lundy Canyon, Virginia Lakes, Sonora Pass area, Monitor Pass, and then home via Ebbetts Pass.
