Peralta Trail is one of my favorite hikes. An easy, close-by out-and-back hike with a nice view of Weaver's Needle as a reward. Peralta isn't as crowded on the weekdays as it is on the weekend when it's a nightmare. Recommend hiking during the week if you can get the time off. Took the whole family again on their second hike together. I knew I wasn't going to turn them into hikers. Should have known better.....
