Off-Trail hike

Report:

Another enjoyable outing in summerlike weather. By taking the trail you can bypass the downclimb and the more difficult portion of the ridge, rejoining it just before the summit. It took us at a no rush pace almost 4 hours so we had a long and relaxed lunch. In the way back you gain about 300 meters counting the ups and downs, we arrived back at the cars at 5pm with tired legs. Bonus: the traffic on the drive home wasn't bad at all. Thanks to all the participants: Jeannette, Jon, Harold, Lenard from Francisco C/S

A well deserved rest
