Lake Elizabeth Hike

On Wednesday, April 12, Sandy & John Petrin led a 10-person hike around Lake Elizabeth in Fremont., The hike was easy, level and about 4.4 miles for most, 2.2 miles for those looking more for a “Lite Rambler” distance. Along the way there was a lot of waterfowl and even some new goslings! About noon we adjourned to Panera for a nice lunch. The weather was nice but cooled off in the late morning and the wind came up.

Oak Meadow Park Hike

On April 5, 2023 – Sandy & John Petrin led a hike of 10 folks from Oak Meadow Park, east along Los Gatos Creek to the Garrett Station restaurant for an early lunch. The round-trip hike was about 4 miles with some shade along the way. It was a lovely day as we passed by scenic Vasona Lake and the dam on Los Gatos Creek. In the first photo it shows the gushing water from the dam – a sight none of the hikers had ever seen before. The other photo depicts a section of the normally dry trail that was closed due to extensive flooding. The hikers had to alter course a bit to stay above the mud.
