    Ben Lomond peak 7/12/08

    Me, Cam, Leroy, Dave
    Trailhead at 8am, peak at noon. We hung out and ate lunch for about an hour, then started down at 1. We got to the parking lot at 3:20.

    16.4 miles round trip, I forget the elevation gain, but I believe it was around 3800 ft?

    We were treated with 6 Mountain Goats @100' from the peak as we're eating lunch. I did the best I could with my 3X zoom.

    heavy photo content... don't worry, I took 220 pics and reduced it to 59.

    Dang! That's a big blister!

    I wish we had some green to hike in. We did 11 miles today on a dirt road in SoCal. It was about 1800 ft elevation and super hot the entire time with no shade.

    Your hiking place is beautiful! Thank for sharing.

    Great Pics!

    This is on my to-do-list, but venture just a bit further and bag the Weber County Highpoint, Willard Peak.

    I hope I see some goats!

    Is that dirt or hair above the blister?

    That blue compression sleeve on my arm is for my Bursitis in my elbow, I've gotta wear that for @ 2 more weeks.

    That blister was on Cam's foot. That's dirt.

    I was looking at the trail for biking, it'd be a good one. Tough climb though. We passed about 4 groups of bikers. It would be a riot to bomb down though.

    Perhaps shuttling to the top of Willard peak and riding over to Ben Lomand and then down to the devide might be a little more tempting.
