Nicasio Reservoir Reflection in Marin County, California

by

There are several routes from San Francisco to the Point Reyes National Seashore, but I sure am glad I took this one. The Nicasio Reservoir of Marin county was nearly empty when we drove past this area August of 2014. Now the water levels look healthy after winter rains, but I'm not sure how long this will last.

View of San Francisco from Twin Peaks

by

If you are into urban hiking, you will have a hard time finding a better opportunity than climbing up to the top of the Twin Peaks in San Francisco. Start out at ground level and work your way up about 1,000 feet to get this view of the city. The hike takes a couple of hours to complete, but you will have plenty of time to rest while admiring the views below. If you go in … [Read more...] about View of San Francisco from Twin Peaks
