Montara Mountain: September 15


We returned to Montara Mountain this weekend for a 14 mile hike through San Pedro Valley County Park and McNee Ranch State Park. It was our last aggressive hike before we begin to taper in advance of our big day on October 6. As usual, Pacifica and the rest of this part of the coast was socked in with fog early in the day. This keeps the air warm and slightly muggy until you get above the clouds and the sun slowly burns off the fog. By the afternoon it was quite warm and I have a sunburn to prove it. In all, we covered parts of five different trails, and reached a maximum elevation of 1,898', before arriving at this spot above Highway 1 for a group photo.
