Hiking at Monte Bello



Woke up warm and toasty atop Black Mountain inside my Mountain Hardwear down sleeping bag and Kelty tent. Alice, Jared, Amy, Bryan and I fired up some hot water on the camp stove for our power breakfast of maple and brown sugar oatmeal and hot chocolate. Then we packed up and headed back to the parking lot to meet up with a group of eight or so friends who wanted to hike on the beautiful Saturday morning.

Alice, Jared and Amy headed off while Bryan and I dumped our packs and headed out with the anxious group. We did a nice five mile loop down to Stevens Creek, climbed to the very top of Black Mountain and then made our way back to the parking lot.
