Autumn Hiking (Tahoe area) - Mt. Tallac Trail
Fallen Leaf Lake November 28, 2025 A belated mini post from my three day trip to the Lake Tahoe area at the end of October. Glorious weather and diminished crowds that time of year which is wonderful. Here are a handful of images from my trip. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of autumn foliage I found on the drive to and from the mountains and during my explorations. Along Highway…

Pretty in Purple on Mount Tamalpais
April 19, 2025 Plenty of purple blooms showing off their splendor early in the wildflower season. Images are from three different hikes in the state park and watershed areas of the Marin County mountain. Oakland Mariposa Lily, Hogback Fire Road Douglas Iris, Bootjack Trail Primula (Shooting Stars), Cataract Trail Redwood Sorrel, Cataract Trail Okay, this one has more of a “pinkish hue”. I…

Cataract Trail - Falls, Early Wildflowers and More
March 27, 2025 Primula / Shooting Stars It’s never a bad day to be on a hiking trail, or just out in nature. Each season brings its own gifts. This time of year, I start seeing the early wildflowers and it’s a thrill for me to see the first shooting stars on Mount Tamalpais. I think this species of flower has an unduly large place in my heart because I’d come across them on my many Mount…

When Trees Go Supernova - Panoramic Highway, Mount Tamalpais
December 20, 2024 Happy solstice to all and to all a good morning. Out for a morning hike on my sacred mountain. I wasn’t even hiking yet, just stopped along Panoramic Highway across from Mountain Home Inn to watch the sun, fog and forest play their games of light and shadow.

Quiet Beauty on a Sunday Morning - Mount Tamalpais
Sunday church? This is my church, my sacred cathedral where I can worship things that I can actually see, touch and even smell. Dwarf Rose Alice Eastwood Road, Mount Tamalpais

Death Valley Road Trip
April 1, 2024 Yes, I really did go, and these are real photos of Death Valley, not some AI April Fools’ prank. Just want to share a few photos of the many that I took on a recent camping trip to this magical place. I’ll do some more extensive posts soon. Panamint Range / Telescope Peak This first photo is from my drive into the park from the south on Panamint Valley Road on March 17. The high…

Good Morning 2024 from Mount Tamalpais
January 2, 2024 Mount Tamalpais State Park, Marin County California View south from Matt Davis Trail Some glorious light from my sacred mountain. A gift from the spirits that reside here for getting up so early on a New Year’s Day, driving in the dark from Alameda, and hiking its mystical trails. So much easier to do that in sobriety. My sobriety anniversary is at the end of July (1995), so…

Black Friday Hike - Redwood Regional Park
Avoiding the crowds that were avoiding the crowds I can honestly say that for as long as I’ve done my own shopping, I’ve yet to venture out shopping on a Black Friday. Generally, I’d rather spend a couple extra bucks to save my sanity. Many times, being in the restaurant biz, I was scheduled to work. But even on the occasions when I had the day off, I wasn’t remotely tempted. This year, I had…

Moonrise and the Bay Bridge
(Sometimes you just get lucky) November 18, 2023 A single photo post of a photo from the end of October. From a balcony at Waterbar Restaurant on the Embarcadero, I pulled out my iPhone 12 and attempted to get just a simple photo of the not quite full moon rising above the Oakland Hills to the east. Unhappy with what I was seeing, and my trusty Nikon nowhere near, I started fiddling with a few…

My Latest "Masterpiece" - Upper Basin along the JMT
October 17, 2023 Ink on bristol paper, 13″x 10″ While I semi-jokingly refer to this as my latest “masterpiece”, I can’t deny that I’m very proud of this latest drawing that I finished on Sunday. This piece is part of my ongoing John Muir Trail project. In 2015, I spent 25 glorious, arduous days backpacking 226 miles in California’s rugged Sierra Nevada range. It was a grand adventure, well…

My Annual Frank Valley Wildflower Safari and Census - Mount Tamalpais State Park
Cow parsnip in the morning sun, Redwood Creek Trail June 8, 2023 Whew, that’s a mouthful. And MAFVWSC-MTSP is not to be confused with my My Annual Autumn Color Sierra Photo Safari (that I haven’t been able to do since 2020, so not so annual after all). But it is springtime so after pumping some Flonase and Claritin D into my body, a fully charged Nikon and strong coffee in my cup holder, I…

The Magical Light of Morning - Mount Tam
May 16, 2023 I’ve seen some really amazing views in my decades of hiking the various trails of Mount Tamalpais and elsewhere in California. But this past Saturday’s interplay of fog, sunlight and forest really took my breath away. I’ve posted variations of this type of image in the past, and I don’t discount the idea of recency bias, but this and the series of images I took were some of the more…

Point Reyes National Seashore - Hike to Alamere - Photo Gallery (& some words)
A gallery of images from Point Reyes National Seashore/Alamere Fall and the Coast Trail
April 24, 2023 Springtime weather is upon is, as is springtime pollen. After a long, wet winter and early spring flowers are blooming all along the Coast Trail out of the Palomarin Trailhead. I started at about 8:00 Friday morning (4/21) from the trailhead and headed north toward Alamere Falls. In all, I hiked somewhere around 11 miles, I think. I decided not to track my mileage on my Strava app…
