Still out of the office, Raleigh and I headed to Almaden Quicksilver for a serious hike.
WAIST Management had been there on April 1st.
We basically went down the New Almaden Tr to some convenient point at which we climbed to the Randol Trail, the further on to the junction with the Mine Hill Road. We took that all the way back, descending almost to the parking lot off Almaden Rd.
That left a fair climb back along the Hacienda Trail., then to the car via the Virl Norton Trail.
I really pushed myself; around 12 miles in 4 hours, Plus some climbing. Saw a few deer along the way. Beautiful weather. Probably only one or two fellow hikers.
Beats working.
Hike totals: 12mi, 1700 gain
2007 totals: 138 miles, 29,900' elevation gain
