Wednesday, May 14 - Pacific Crest Trail through the Tehachapi Windmill Farm

Today we get the opportunity to go with Sierra Club Jim as he recreates for us a traditional annual hike that other chapters hold once a year. We drive to Cal City and up Highway 58 to Cameron Road, and south for our rally point.

Tuesday, May 13 - Pacific Crest Trail North from Walker Pass

Today we take the PCT north to look at the flowers that still remain at the higher elevations. The trail takes off from Highway 178 at Walker Pass. This is one of my favorite hikes.

Sunday, May 11 - The Mother's Day Mountain

Today we attempted to climb Black Mountain. There are several Black Mountains, and this one is in the El Paso Range, near our home. We have climbed this as a Mother's Day climb before, one memorable time with B, friend B, and dog Chuck, probably about 10 years ago. That day, he came to grief.  This day, it was my turn.
