That’s a good one. Still waiting for it to cool off so I don’t have to deal with pesky flies.This is the trail at Big Basin I always wanted to do but never did
Bigger Basin Loop Hiking Trail, Boulder Creek, California
A big loop in Big Basin State Park. Near Boulder Creek, California.
We moved over the hill to Almaden when I was in the 7th grade. Almaden is a killer part of San Jose with the Santa Cruz mountains in your backyard. There’s allot of killer horse trails that we would hit up with our mountain bikes. We weren’t supposed to but did. It would have been fucked if there was an actual horse on there when you come zipping around a corner. The trails are only like 3 foot wide max carved into the sides of the mountains lol. Never got busted by the police but warned a few times. We hit up those trails in the winter also we didn’t give a shit about having to clean our bikes afterwards lol.
I am getting the feeling there is a divide here. There are the mountain bikers and then there are the commuter bikers or road bikers. Maybe Like the road bikers don’t like getting dirty. Lol. Mountain bikers are filthy happy animals/ lol. In my experience mountain bikers are much happier than road bikers. Those trails you speak of sound delicious minus the horse shit.
Those are some pretty cool trails to add to your list to possibly check out. There’s quite a few that are linked together to the Almaden Quicksilver Park. You can learn about the history of Almaden too in the actual park. Like how in the early days of extracting the mercury(all the mercury used in gold mining the Mother Load came from there) they were killing shitloads of people down in the Almaden valley when the vapors from the ovens would fall down there. Pretty fucked up shit.
Interesting information. I have patients , young patients with Lung Cancer who don’t smoke and have
Something like that. It's probably ADD....ADHD....brain rot.....weeditis...some mental handicap......brain worm......tough to tell.
Dang you have all the fun!
How's the back doing?Dang you have all the fun!
My daughter and fam is down in Monterey right now taking a much needed break from the bakery. Mostly to take the girls to the aquarium but they’re gonna try to hit up some basic trails in Big Sur too.
Yuppers that’s the area where I grew up, or nearby there
Where we lived in Ben Lomand, about a couple hundred yards behind us some sand dunes began and went for days. Was killer place to grow up. I was super bummed when we moved over the hill, but my momma hooked us up as always into the best part of San Jose. We were like the Beverly HillHippies lol.

Did you guys know the DB’s were from San jose?
I see. Nice! I’m getting to understand the area more all the time. That certainly is a super cool beautiful place to grow up. The Monterey bakery sounds delicious. We went to Ano Nuevo today to see the elephant seals before they make the park ticketed tour only for the season . With males showing up now and the females showing up in a month for mating season. We got super lucky to spot this adult 14 year old 5,000 lb male right before he headed into the ocean. What a beast! He made the 2 month trek from Alaska fat and full of food. He won’t eat now for 4 months. It’s a beautiful park and always so hot when we go! Today it was 70 degrees. Only 3 more weekends until we move to Colorado. I’m pretty happy with where we have gone and what we have seen this past 6 months.Dang you have all the fun!
