I rode over Highland Road and Camino Tassajara yesterday - more of the Cindy route. Highland was sooo windy. Granted I already had 60 miles in my legs and the climb over Morgan Territory. Tassajara was nice though!

Thanks V for the great travelogue, pics and all. Makes me want to go for a hike in the Mitchell Canyon area. Know about the falls up there?
Sorry we won't see you all tomorrow.
But you'll be there in spirit that's for sure!

Thanks for the pix, Veronica! It's so beautiful, it's hard to believe it gets all brown and yucky. Diablo looks like a 'devil' to get up!!

No, it gets "golden." Originally Posted by nuthatch

Strike the "yucky"!!! I've only visiting your area once and I was struck by the wheat-colored hills with the lone oaks sprinkled around. I guess I was thinking about the dryness around my sister's place in Texas, which can be a bit grim sometimes (although beautiful in it's own way - don't want to rile you Texas girls!) Each area has it's own beauty and aren't we lucky to be going slow enough on our rides to actually enjoy it!! Originally Posted by aka_kim

I love the gold hills and the green valley oaks, especially in the evening light.
