Santa Cruz and Montana de Oro, October 2008

We took a quick trip up to Santa Cruz in early October of 2008. We biked the Skyline to Sea trail in Big Basin and hiked up to Berry Falls:





Gold Falls was just a little further up the trail:



We also rode in the Forest of Nisene Marks and in the Henry Cowell Redwoods; this was taken on an early morning walk in Henry Cowell:



On our way home, we camped at Montana de Oro in the Morro Bay area. Although we did see some sea otters, they were not very close to shore. The wind was offshore and we could see the entire Big Sur coastline to the north:



The waves were smaller than usual, but they still surged and crashed on the craggy rocks:
