Rinconada Trail

September 3rd , three pm hike on a eighty degree day . The day is dry , warm , quiet and lonely as it is in the middle of the week when most folks are either working or in school . 

Sierra and I are enjoying the space and the dry vistas . I am once again enjoying photographing Sierra as she plays and hunts ground stairwells . Such is the life of a happy retired seventy five year old hiker !

She never caught anything but she enjoyed the run !

Keep on hiking !

posting  a few photos taken yesterday 12-8-12

As you can see by these fresh bear tracks , these guys are still active !

The tracks were many and of different sizes . I often see bear tracks on my daily hikes

 

 

note worthy , I wear a zize 13 shoe

 

As I have said many times , rainy weather is fun and the photo is my dog Sierra enjoying a puddle in the rain.
