A Fogless Hike up Montara Mountain

Last Saturday, May 24, I lead my College of San Mateo class up Montara Mountain on a day that was less than perfect for enjoying the spectacular views that stretch from the bay to the ocean, and many points north and south. It was mostly foggy, with occasional sun and a glimpse of Mount Diablo from the summit.

Conditions were very different on May 28 when I joined my Wednesday hiking group up the mountain. There was no fog and lots of sunshine all the way. Because of the moist maritime influence, there are still lots of wildflowers, including the beautiful native cobweb thistle.



I have included a few pictures just to give you an idea of what it was like.
