- (After injuring my toe at the start of the month, I had to forego any hiking before this trip.) The annual Talusdancers pack trip, though a rather easy and short one this year.
Day 1: Drive over Tioga Pass to Big Pine Creek for trailhead barbecue and car camping.
Day 2: Backpack up to Lake Two.
Day 3: Backpack to Lake Four.
Day 4: Hang at Lake Four. Short early morning walk to Summit Lake.
Day 5: Day hike to Lakes Six and Seven.
Day 6: Hike out and drive home.
***August 20, 2006
- Toe is recovering enough that I could take a short hike today at Calero.
***August 21, 2006
- Continuing the recuperation with a short urban walk.
***August 22, 2006
- Quicksilver hike from MacAbee Road to the reservoir and back.
***August 23, 2006
- Another little easy loop at Calero.
***August 25, 2006
- Urban hike: Train to San Francisco, then walk along Embarcadero to Ferry Building, past Transamerica Building, through Chinatown and North Beach to Fishermans Wharf, then back along waterfront.
***August 26, 2006
- Short hike at Quicksilver.
***August 30, 2006
- Up Deep Gulch to the ridge on Castillero Trail - on a hunt for locations that Wallace Stegner might have used as a setting for the home in Angle of Repose. Back down via Mine Hill.
