New Hike Today

Today we hiked a new trail for us, the Second Water Trail. This hike starts at the First Water Trailhead. Like the Peralta Trailhead this one is at the end of a dirt road. But unlike the long drive to the Peralta Trailhead this one is only 2 1/2 miles down the road. We didn't hike the entire trial but rather hiked in about 2 miles and then came back. That allowed us to reach Garden Valley, a large, flat area. The trail didn't have any large elevation changes but there were some ups and down. Overall a nice hike on a nice trail.

How's this for a western scene?
