Default Mt. Hamilton Run

It's been a while since I did one of these. Weather looks like it might be pretty decent this Saturday.
I figure we grab early lunch then do an early afternoon run.
I'm planning on bringing my camera gear so if location and weather is right, might do a impromptu photo shoot.

I'm planning on doing the whole run up to licks observatory then down the backside to livermore.

anyone interested?

I'll be on the way to Japan, sorry. Would've loved to have gone, though!

Time: 10:30AM
Where: Safeway
3002 Story Rd.
San Jose, CA

Itenenary
1. Safeway
2. (R) S White Rd
3. (L) Quimby Rd
4. (R) Mt. Hamilton road (Route 130)
5. Stop at Licks Observatory for some pictures
6. (Continue) Mt. Hamilton Rd.

The drive is at least couple hours. Might want to bring some water/ snack.
Be ready for an intense drive. And remember, you are attending this drive at your own risk and should always drive within your own ability.
Other than that, make sure you have plenty of gas and come out to have fun!! We will probably stop at couple other places for photo ops, weather permitting and location permitting.
Also, bring 2 way radio if you have them. Cellphones don't work too well out there.

Start the list again:
