Barnabe Mountain Hike : James, Jen, and I did the Barnabe Mountain listed in "60 Hikes in 60 Miles" near Point Reyes in December. The way up was great, but the way down was really boring. To liven things up, Jen sprained her ankle.

American Canyon Dayhike 2006 : Dayhike with Rich and the County Hikers. Initially he planned a trip to Alamere Falls on Point Reyes Nat'l Seashore, but the onset of cool, rainy weather led to a shorter trip, closer to home. We hiked down American Canyon Creek to Poverty Bar, on the Middle Fork of the American River. It was a short but fun hike, as the weather cooperated nicely. The power and strength of the river was impressive; definitely not something to trifle with!

Mt Wrightson, May 14 2006, : Mothers day 2006,  Me, Brothers Dan and Matt, and long time friend Chris head up Mt Wrightson, about an hour south of Tucson, along Madera Canyon.  I was breaking in a new pair of boots, that broke.  So while the 3 of them got to go to the top, I went back to the car.  These are the unedited pictures of their adventure.
