On the Bay Area Ridge Trail

While there are over 1,000 trails in the National Scenic and Recreation trail system including such gems as the Pacific Crest Trail and Apalachian Trail, our very own Skyline Trail right here in the Bay Area was the very first one - the very first! It was designated in 1971 and is now part of the larger, 500 mile Bay Area Ridge Trail. 500 miles, hmmmn - What is that - 25 or 30 dayhikes? One of my new years resolutions is to take fridays off of work - so why not spend those days chipping away at the Bay Area Ridge Trail.

I'm starting right here 10 minutes from my home on the Skyline trail. Stay tuned for updates as I make progress on this trail!
