Richard Bainbridge and Wendy Ledamun led a medium hike in Pearson-Arastradero Preserve, in the Palo Alto foothills. This new destination for the hiking club proved to be a winner with a beautiful blue sky and views of SF and many of the surrounding peaks. The trails were mainly old farm roads with connector trails. The hike was about 4 miles with an elevation gain of about 400 ft. The hike was in the open space which was perfect for the day’s temperature.
