Last Sunday evening, myself Raja and Jayanthi went to Mission Peak. It is around 11 miles from my place. This is my first trekking experience in the US. At the beginning it seemed very easy. No hard rocks, no thorns, no slippery stones...it is all just a single mud road...whose elevation gradually increases. But after walking on this road for about half an hour I started to feel the pinch..
I saw a few people walking backwards, I tried it too..it seemd easier than walking in the normal way. After a few pit stops, we reached the peak. The pacific, crimson red sun, the golden brown hay, lonely houses made the evening memorable. On the way back saw a lot of squirrils and a wolf too!
While coming down realised that it is hard to control the speed .....coming down is always fast!!! [ applies everywhere :( ]
We were back at the foot by 9:00 pm..had dinner at Bhima's and back to Larkspur!! to begin another hectic week.
So what did I lose ???...Lost a lot of calories :D
