Re: Peralta Trailhead closure
I'm not sure if it is still closed, but they have killed an adult Bobcat in the area. Apparently, it scratched and bit three different hikers.
Hiking is just walking where it’s okay to pee.

@Grimey
Wonder if it was the one that left the big paw prints at Barks? (Seemed a big print for what I think a bobcat should be.)

Be careful. It's not quite "a jungle out there." But history shows that it can be dangerous out there.

Re: Peralta Trailhead closure
Just saw on FB that Peralta is now back open.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty & well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out & proclaiming, "Wow What a Ride!"
