Pleasanton Ridge 4/19/08

Nice 4 mile hike. Also very nice to see some new faces hiking with us. We hope Kris and Jean will continue to join us on our adventures! This hike was a relatively quick out and back. We did it in about an hour and 45 minutes. It happened to be a pretty cool and windy day so we lucked out that we were hiking on the protected side of the hills. To get to the starting point of the hike you must be or be with a Pleasanton resident. Free entrance and parking at this place. It was also decently shaded. There were some good views of the valley while hiking the trail. Very pretty spring flowers along the path. My camera was not doing well this trip so I am short on pictures. Hopefully Kris will send us a few of hers. It wasn't one of my favorites but it is a good place to do an exercise routine type hike.
