Had a great trip to Big Sur. We stayed in some fantastic yurts right on the coast with a great view of the ocean. If you visit Big Sur, I highly recommend them. http://www.treebonesresort.com/ We watched the whales from our deck, from the hot tub, and from a bench on a ridge about 40 feet from our yurt. The highlight of the trip was watching one gray wale breach 7 times in a row!

This weekend, I will be hiking Tiger Mountain 3. Climb is not terribly strenuous, but it is a nice hike to great views. Meet in the upper parking lot at 9:00 AM.

This weekend, I am heading to Big Sur, California for a long weekend with my boyfriend. Hopefully, we will take in some short hikes at various state parks in the area. We really want to see the waterfall at Julia Pfieffer Burns State Park. We are also looking forward to seeing the gray whales migrating north with their calves.

I am hoping to hike Tiger Mountain next weekend. Please let me know if you want to join me. I did my first post surgery training hike on March 18. Bob Reorda and I climbed Mt. Si. 8 miles RT, 3100 feet of elevation gain. Took me 2 1/2 hour to get up with 30 pounds on my back.
