Thirteen Ramblers enjoyed a beautiful 6-mile coastal hike at Half Moon Bay on July 10th. Although much of California was experiencing summer heat, we were treated to a pleasantly cool day along the coast.
The trail was especially scenic, with large areas covered in blooming evening primroses and scattered California poppies adding splashes of color to the landscape.
Along the way, we met Hanne, a former club member, who shared a couple of local sayings about Half Moon Bay weather: “no-Sky July” and “Foggiest August”–reminders of the unique coastal climate that keeps the area cool during the summer months.
About halfway through our hike, we stopped for a simple and tasty lunch at The Barn, enjoyed a short rest, and then completed the second half of our journey refreshed and energized.
Thank you to everyone who joined for another enjoyable Rambler adventure along the beautiful Half Moon Bay coast! Weny, Michele, John, Theresa, Phil, Mary, Ali, Matt, Joan, Wendy, Hanne, Pam, Mimi, John Zhang.
