A very quick hike…
As part of the run-up to my 9-day Sierra pack trip starting at the end of this week, I’m trying to hike every day – uphill when possible. We’re all going to a Giants game later this today so I went on a very early hike this morning. I climbed to a 1500+ foot ridge at Almaden Quicksilver Park, descended, and was back home before 10:00 am.

It's not about the ship
Ship on San Francisco Bay and thunderheads building over the Sierra. July 5, 2004.
This photo was take from the upper level of SBC Park during today’s San Francisco Giants (vs. Rockies) baseball game. Not a bad view, huh?
The distant clouds are thunderheads building over the Sierra Nevada, perhaps 100 miles away.
I contemplate these things as I plan for a 9-day pack trip starting this weekend and debate whether to carry a tent or my bivy and a tarp…
