What better way to start the year than peakbagging? New Year's Day was a nice day to go for an easy hike over Garin Peak.
Near the trailhead. |
We started at the main Garin Park parking lot. There were plenty of spaces open. People must have partied too hard the night before. The first part of the trail is paved, but then the dirt starts for a nice loop.
Rocks in the middle of the field. |
The trail is not difficult, and the views were nice. The grass was starting to turn green, but it will be a while before it gets to the bright, vibrant green that we get in the spring.
View to the south. |
We brought sandwiches, and had some lunch at the summit. It was a nice place for a picnic. On the way down, one of the groups we passed told us they saw a bobcat. They were loud enough I'm sure it was scared away and we had no chance of seeing it.
