We are fortunate to live on the West side of the San Francisco Bay in the Mid Peninsula town of Belmont. As you walk westward from any starting point you will be negotiating hillsides of various intensities.
Today we walked the "8" mile trail at Windy Ridge in Portola Valley. The first half of the walk takes you up four rolling hills. Topping the first introduces you to the second and so on. Eventually, you reach the final top with spectacular views of the Bay Area.
Early morning mist
A little higher and the day becomes sunny
Tangerine, chocolates and water at the mid way point.
Looking South towards San Jose, in the fog.
Looking South towards the Pacific Ocean, also in the fog.
