biking

I failed to bike Mount McKinley, failed a hike to the Pinnacle, but I did see the Aqueduct Cascades.

One of the top questions I get is, "Are there really bison in Santa Clarita, California?" And, the answer is yes, there are.

Twas a blustery, wintry day when I set off on my expedition to the distant peak...

No, the title isn't a law firm: it's five peaks near Mt Wilson that I biked and hiked.

These were taken near Mt Chapel on a Griffith Park bike ride. The Air Quality Index today was 'Unhealthy', with haze and pollution trapped in the Los Angeles basin.

Pacifico Mountain (7124') is in the back range of the San Gabriels so, generally speaking, it's more of a pristine environment than the front range peaks.

I biked Hostetter (from the 210 and La Tuna Canyon) to Verdugo Peak. All the way up, my bike was bugging me to do a fashion shoot and I obliged it.

The Tarzana area of Los Angeles hosts a geological feature known as the Vanalden "Cave". I'd heard about it but never bothered to visit until now. Getting to it was OK, even if the "cave" wasn't.

If you want to amuse and amaze your future ex-friends, let them know that it snows each year in the City of Los Angeles. Yes, that's right, it snows here each year!

It was a harrowing, 14-hour climbing excursion via the toughest route up Mt Evans aka Mt Blue Sky.

I had a case of missing time on my way to Canada.

I biked the highest point in San Luis Obispo County, Caliente Mountain.

"What?" You're no doubt asking, because you know the two titular destinations are well over an hour apart.

I'd hiked Josephine Peak in the Angeles National Forest a few times, but this was the first time I'd biked it. It was very windy at times.
