Cerro Alto mountain

located between
Atascadero and Morro Bay Cal in the Los padres National Forrest with a 1600 ft elevation gain is my daily hike . I never tire of the variety of visual pleasure I get from this wilderness

.
At times it is the landscape or wildlife I love photographing .
And often it is the people on the mountain I love photographing .
Today I enjoyed photographing Sara Gorman , a young runner . I have hiked with her twice and
I admire her strength and her love for the wilderness. She loves running. And as you can see , she does it well . A few weeks ago I hiked 15 miles with her in the Pozo area and found her to be a to be an exceptionally strong young lady !
I hope that you enjoy this experience as much as I loved photographing it .
The bottom line is there is a beautiful experience for all on Cerro Alto
Keep on hiking !
