Widowmaker with Nikko!


Summit Pano!
Great views all day!
Nikko didn't want to be a monkey here...
Went on a BIG hike with the boys.  We weren't really planning on a BIG hike, but we just started off and then we decided to keep on going.  That was fun.  The boys did great.  Kimbo's knee was hurting, so she was a bit struggles...

Doesn't look like a great day to hike... 
Love these Larkspur parking spots...

Trail Snack
Checker Lily (aka Chocolate Lily).  Whorled leaves, the colors can widely vary

Soon we made our way onto Indian Ladder (aka Widowmaker)... the boys love this trail.  
Here's where this trail ends... 
  

 












Do you see the lizard?


stumbled down this climbers trail on the way down... 









We promised the kids ice cream... they got a shake which was a fair compromise.
I went up Diablo with Sigman the day before, which made for a nice weekend of bay area peak taggin'
