On a windy but sunny Sunday we went for a hike with Marcy. We did hike #79 Windy Hill Loop from the 101 Great Hikes of the San Francisco Bay Area. We left from the parking lot on Skyline and decended down Hamms Gulch trail to Alpine Road. We followed a small stream that we could see fingerling fish swimming about. There was a 10-degree temperature difference from the top of the ridge to Alpine Road. We were happy for the shade of the trail. We climbed 1520 feet back up Razor Back Trail. Afterwards we had big hamburgers at the Mountain House Inn. The trip was 8.3 miles and took 2:52. (Click on the map for a larger image.)
