The last hike we took in 2008 before the cold weather really settled in was to Pt. Reyes National Seashore. Point Reyes was established to preserve and protect wilderness, natural ecosystems, and cultural resources along the diminishing undeveloped coastline of the western United States. This is another favorite hiking spot for me and Dan. We’ve been here a handful of times, but the beauty never ceases to amaze us, the views never get old, and the gentle rolling hike from the Bear Valley Visitor Center to the edge of the sea is always breathtaking. We were there on November 21st, and it was a clear crisp day, perfect for hiking. After hiking 5.5 miles, our stop for lunch was welcome and since it wasn’t very cold, we were able to spread out on the rocks on the bluffs at the end of the trail very comfortably. After lunch we hiked back to the trailhead and headed back home. This will probably be our last hike in this area for some time to come, as our travel plans take us the other side of the country for awhile come March. Our pictures will help us remember what a lovely time we had that day.
