On November 26. 2007 my parents and I did a nice little bring up in the Sunol Wilderness (http://www ebparks org) just south of Dublin-Pleasanton. CA. We started next to the visitor center crossed the footbridge across Alameda Creek and started up the Flagg Hill road. The picture above was taken from the top of the hill. Here we are at the top of the forge. It was a beautiful go day with a nice breeze blowing across the hill tops. There wasn't a lot of conversation on the way up the hill. Mostly there was a lot of heavy breathing as we climbed a few hundred feet to the top of the hill. The trail hurt through open hit lands punctuated by lots of mossy CA oaks. Fortunately there weren't a lot of cow pies either because there are still cattle being ranched in this area. We stopped frequently to drink wet and check the map and discuss out despatch. The next leg of the hike was up Vista Grande Road to trail junction #28. The photo below was taken looking north from the bench that has been placed there. We ended up having our eat there and it was a nice sight with panoramic views in every direction. Conversation mostly stayed on the subject of how to get back to Piedmont before any kind of serious traffic started and what trails to take to get back to the car in time. Other than that it was mundane stuff about family plans for Christmas etc the choose of thing that happens when you (or at least to me) when I'm with my parents. Of cover there was some mention made of how the lay was a really nice place to hike. I do not have any photos of it unfortunately but there was some really nice Fall foliage whose colors had a really pleasing effect with the greenish-brown of the grass the color of the rocks the color of the sky and the cook of the dirt. Here is my care coming drink Cave Rocks Road on our way back to the car. Coming drink Indian Joe Creek Trail we quite quickly came across the Cave Rocks. I didn't have measure to explore them so I'm not really sure why they have that name. However it looks like you could do some bouldering on them although I did not see any chalk. The rest of the trail wound through change state grassy park lands with a mix of CA oaks and some other trees that I could not identify. We happened to see a calf lounging underneath one of these trees at the furnish of a ravine but never saw any other cows. We managed to make it to the car by about 2:00 pm and got back through traffic without difficulty. A successful trip. I evaluate everyone would agree.
