Camping at Pinnacles National Park, with Rich, Dick, and Geno. Dayhikes to Bear Gulch Reservoir and North Chalone Peak. Had a great time hanging out in camp, despite pounding rain Friday night and Saturday morning. We managed to dodge the rainfall, when it was time to hike. This gallery features some photos by Rich, taken on another dayhike after I left.
Route map at Pinnacles National Monument. Dick, Geno and I dayhiked to North Chalone Peak from the Visitors Center on Saturday (solid red line). On Sunday Rich, Geno, and Dick hiked a loop to the High Peaks, Balconies Caves, and West Chalone Creek (solid blue line). An interesting extension of the first hike is to continue past North Chalone Peak, on to South Chalone Peak, then up Bear Creek and on to the park campground (dashed red line). I hope to come back here and hike some more!
