| no partners | | Went from Peralta TH to Reeds Water. Weather was perfect. Not too much traffic on the trail. Saw no one on Coffee Flats except for the lone backpacker set up right next to the upper windmill. He did not wish to chat, and left his tent and went off without a word while we had a quick lunch near the windmill. The windmill looks in better shape then the last time I saw it. Water could be seen 15 feet down below the windmill, but not elsewhere. The lower windmill area looked very inviting with a nice flat grassy area, and without the moaning sound of the upper windmill blades turning.
The biggest shocker for me was the giant Peralta Regional Park sign and the new road with huge gate across it. I was unaware, but I see the initial plan was brought up in 2007. Wow. Definitely going to be a big change, as mentioned in the forum and triplog post discussing it.
Saw 2 alpacas in the parking lot with their owner at the end of our hike. They always make me smile!
Only water was a pool on Dutchman not too far from the trailhead. |
